Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-grid] Display any element as part of any given grid

This sounds like a use-case that should be addressed in an updated CSS Regions spec.  It breaks down as (a) defining a named region that is laid out as a grid area, and (b) defining a container element to flow into that region.

Regions was all about creating a layout tree that is independent from the DOM tree, and which can be dynamically adjusted.  The  [current spec](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-regions-1/) was abandoned, as far as I understand,  because of objections to its reliance on dummy markup to define the layout tree. But the rest of the spec is still worth considering. For many use-cases, including this one.
