Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-writing-modes] Question about implementability of the "different writing-mode value than its containing block" section of the spec

> Blink checks parent too

On the box tree.  That may not match the Gecko behavior, depending on how "parent" is defined and how various cases involving anonymous boxes are handled.

> Is the logic mentioned here the same as blockificaiton?

No, it's not.  blockification never leads to an inline-outside display type, while the logic here very much does (inline-block).

> If different, is the fix of s/containing block/parent box/ appropriate?

"parent box" has the same problem as "containing block", from my point of view: it's a layering violation.

Worse yet, nothing in the CSS specs really defines "parent box" last I checked, though admittedly I last checked a while ago.
