This is fine since it makes all simpler and eliminates a source of inconsistency. However IMO, it remains the fact that the "hypothetical position" is not precisely defined: # This position is determined after the top margin of the element # has been collapsed with previous adjacent margins what are exactly the "previous adjacent margins" ? As I mentioned at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Jan/0509.html, what about an adjacent top margin of the first inflow child of the element? Does it enter in the set of "previous adjacent margins"? It does not according to a naive reading of "previous", but I doubt that the spec intention were to exclude it from the hypothetical position computation.
