Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-transitions] Transition to height (or width) "auto" (#626)

I think those who could solve this issue on this thread are perhaps thinking too generally.  
I'd say it would solve 95% of the problems that people are having if there could be a transition to `auto` which worked when `overflow:hidden;` is set.  There are no internal layout updates in this case, and as far as my knowledge extends, no need to require `calc` to accept the auto keyword (correct me if I'm wrong, but with `overflow:hidden`, we are really just animating to the value equivalent to the javascript `el.scrollWidth` or `el.scrollHeight`?).
Would it be desirable to special-case the overflow:hidden case?
