Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-multicol] column rules should only be drawn to the height of the column contents

See also crbug.com/792435 - Chrome fails at css/css-multicol/multicol-rule-004.xht , and it's related to this ambiguity. As dbaron says, Chome's behavior is for rules to stop where the columns stop.

With column spanners and nested columns in mind, I think this is the only sensible behavior. You don't want rules drawn through spanners, and you don't want rules in the parts of an inner multicol (with non-auto height) that have no content. There may not be enough content to fill all the outer columns that the inner multicol occupies, and it would just look silly to draw rules there.
