@SelenIT Your proposal is only a rename of `flow-root` to `block`. But this does not solve #1246 and #1486, i.e. if you blockify an `inline-block` (`inline block`), either you get `flow-root` (`block block`), or `inline-block` and `inline block` are not syntactically equivalent.

Adding a third display type allows to preserve syntactic equivalence, which in my opinion is desirable. Moreover, I think it would be nice if `inline-block` and `block` had the same inner display type, just like `inline-table` and `table`, `inline-flex` and `flex`, or `inline-grid` and `grid`.
