So then how do you determine the "appropriate" curve for > border-radius overflow clipping? The CR says it is based on > 'background-clip', but you are saying that should not affect overflow. The CR says that *backgrounds* determine the appropriate curve to clip to via 'background-clip'. It does not say which curve other clip effects use: that is determined by the property doing the clipping. In the case of 'overflow', the definition of 'overflow' says which edge to clip to. The 'border-radius' property just alters the shape of that edge, it does not change which edge. ~fantasai
