Same. There are relatively simple layout-based solutions to make those cases usable (such as wrapping the possibly-overflowing content in a wrapper with overflow:auto). For separate reasons, we're also pursuing specifying the "top layer" positioning mode that things like `dialog` and fullscreen elements in HTML use, so authors can have individual elements totally escape all containing contexts and be displayed on top of everything else in the page; this requires *slightly* more complexity in the JS, but will allow for things like the "custom autocomplete list that doesn't get clipped or overlapped while it's displayed" use-case to be done well. -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/3417#issuecomment-579448240 using your GitHub account
