People are going to expect that grid-gaps take % unit as a value. That is the standard way to do responsive web design — and has been since day 1. I expect that over time, as people shift their thinking, they might decide that using an fr unit makes more sense. Or setting it to a rem/em/px number. But for the first few years, as people switch layout mental models, they will be confused and angered if % doesn't work. I know some folks in the CSSWG don't believe that using % as a gutter is common, but I've asked a few people as I've traveled around (since this first came up on a call), and they look at me like I'm crazy for suggesting someone would make a layout without % for a gutter. Please, yes, let's ship with %'s allowed. There are real reasons to use them. They are commonly used now. -- GitHub Notification of comment by jensimmons Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/345#issuecomment-245105694 using your GitHub account
