Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-position] Ability to set a positioned element's containing block to another element (#5952) from Christoph Päper via GitHub on 2021-02-09 (public-css-archive@w3.org from February 2021)

Would it help if one box, _foo_, could declare itself a named anchor, _foobar_, at its live position relative to the viewport with its box-sizing edges and another box, _bar_, could reference these edges in its positioning properties?

~~~~ css
foo {
  anchor: "foobar";
}
bar {
  position: absolute;
  top: bottom("foobar");
  left: calc(left("foobar")-10px);
}
~~~~
