Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-conditional] [css-contain] Fleshing out @container queries with single-axis containment (#5796)

I would absolutely love to see native container queries realized. One suggestion though:

Please think about supporting css-vars inside the queries

Example:

```css
@container var(--container-medium, (width > 480px)) {
    content: "i am displayed inside medium sized containers";
}
```

This would solve many issues mentioned above and add further flexibility. You could provide a component/framework/whatever with good defaults but also support custom values in a very easy way and the base technology for this (css-vars) is already available!

integration example (lets assume loading a web-component, that uses container queries):

```html
<script type="module" src="//some.cdn/some-component.js"></script>
<style type="text/css">
:root {
  --container-medium: (width > 520px);
}
</style>
```
