I would like to propose a new value for the background-attachment property. [1] I'm not quite sure what to call it; a few suggestions are "parent-fixed" or "attach". It would function the way I think some people expect the value fixed to function. I would define it as follows: (parent-fixed?): If the element does not have scrolling overflow, then background-attachment becomes scroll. If the element has overflow that is scrolled because its scroll property is set to scroll or auto, the background remains attached to the parent of the element while the element is scrolled. However, the background moves with the parent if any ancestor of the element is scrolled. Background-position would work as it does for scroll.
