The CSS Working Group just discussed `Any needs to avoid other layers overriding name-defining @-rules?`, and agreed to the following: * `RESOLVED: Close no change, we should get a stronger use case` <details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary> <emilio> topic: Any needs to avoid other layers overriding name-defining @-rules?<br> <emilio> github: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6461<br> <emilio> miriam: so it's possible to give importance to e.g. using an animation (like using !important on animation-name)<br> <emilio> ... but there's no way to do the same for the animation definition itself<br> <emilio> ... we discussed how name-defining constructs should behave for layers, but there's no way to make them difficult to override<br> <emilio> ... that seems fine to me but OP wondered about whether there's a use case for it<br> <emilio> TabAtkins: without a strong use case I'd rather avoid adding another level of layering given they interact with tree scopes already<br> <emilio> miriam: agreed<br> <emilio> fantasai: how many of these things we have? We haven't needed one so far<br> <emilio> fantasai: layers end up reordering these name-defining constructs, and the question is whether it's needed to make them important<br> <emilio> ... important is really about needing something to be overridden<br> <Rossen_> q?<br> <florian> q+ TabAtkins<br> <TabAtkins> The fact that nobody's request the ability to put !important on these constructs so far (which is today's poor-man versino of layers) suggests it's not needed<br> <emilio> ... I don't think we need to add an importance mechanism to these name-defining constructs<br> <florian> q-<br> <florian> q- TabAtkins<br> <fantasai> [emilio agrees with TabAtkins]<br> <emilio> Rossen_: seems like we should move on until there's a stronger use case<br> <emilio> RESOLVED: Close no change, we should get a stronger use case<br> </details> -- GitHub Notification of comment by css-meeting-bot Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6461#issuecomment-887654904 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
