touch-action on elements that aren't scrolled by their nearest scrollable element ancestor

> When a user touches an element, the effect of that touch is determined by

> nearest ancestor (starting from the element itself) that has a default

Consider this example:
<div style="overflow:auto; position:absolute">
  <div style="touch-action:none;">
    <div style="overflow:auto">
      ...
      <div style="position:absolute;">...</div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
The innermost <div> is not scrolled by the inner scrollable element, but it
is scrolled by the outer scrollable element. (In CSS terms, the innermost
<div>'s containing block is the outer scrollable element.) But the above
spec text suggests that in this example, if the innermost <div> is touched,
only ancestors up to and including the inner scrollable <div> will be
checked for touch-action. In fact there is no way to use touch-action:none
to prevent scrolling in this example. Is this intended?
