Re: [csswg-drafts] Suggestion: Ability to have a relative position without creating a gap in the text. (#4972)

@ByteEater-pl But `reserve-space: never` would be like `position: absolute`?

It seems to me that the new functionality that your proposal would provide is `position: absolute; reserve-space: always`, i.e. being able to position the element like in absolute positioning, but still take some space. The problem is that it's not much well-defined, since abspos elements are out-of-flow and they don't really participate in the parent formatting context. For example, an abspos child of a grid container is not a grid item, so how exactly would you reserve the space?
