[csswg-drafts] [css-align-3] Applicability of 'baseline-source' (#5183)

fantasai has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== [css-align-3] Applicability of 'baseline-source' ==
CSS Inline Layout now has a 'baseline-source' property. (See https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/861.) Do we want to re-use it for general box alignment instead of inlining [first|last] into the alignment properties?

(I suspect inlining the value into the alignment propeties has better ergonomics; we didn't do that for `vertical-align` only because we needed the values stored on a longhand so that `alignment-baseline` and `baseline-shift` could be split out. But wanted to see if anyone had good arguments for having it be a separately-cascaded property from e.g. `align-self`.)
