-        <p>''content: flow-from(&lt;ident&gt;)'' moves an element to a named
-        flow. Should we allow the content to be copied to a flow instead of
-        moved to a flow. For example:</p>
-
-        <div class="code">
-            #quote_A { flow-into: "quotes"; content: contents; }
-        </div>
-
-        <p>would keep ''#quote_A'' in the normal flow but also copy its content
-        to the ''quotes'' flow. This essentially clones the node and raises
-        questions regarding DOM access, CSSOM view and the computed style.</p>
