Re: [csswg-drafts] [selectors-4] Can an element with no boxes and no child elements be in :hover state? from Rune Lillesveen via GitHub on 2017-03-29 (public-css-archive@w3.org from March 2017)

If I read the current draft[1] correctly, it says that that the deepest node in the chain of nodes that gets the :hover state must be an element, and must generate a box. There is no requirement that the ancestors need to generate boxes to get the :hover state, though. So for this case:

```
<div style="display:contents">
  <div>
    <div style="display:contents">Hover me</div>
  </div>
</div>
```

The inner display:contents does not match :hover, but the outer does.

#1135 is related.
