The CSS Working Group just discussed `[css-position] Behaviour of semi-replaced elements.`, and agreed to the following:

* `RESOLVED: Semi-replaced elements stretch in both directions in abspos`

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;fantasai> Topic: [css-position] Behaviour of semi-replaced elements.<br>
&lt;fantasai> github: css-position] Behaviour of semi-replaced elements.<br>
&lt;fantasai> github: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6789<br>
&lt;fantasai> iank_: After last week's meeting dholbert did an in-depth investigation, which was great to see<br>
&lt;fantasai> iank_: test page with a whole bunch of replaced elements, and looked at behavior<br>
&lt;fantasai> iank_: we both agreed that it's probably reasonable to stretch in both directions for all semi-replaced elements<br>
&lt;fantasai> iank_: There's no browser which does something consistently, so every browser would need to change<br>
&lt;fantasai> iank_: but this is a straighforward path forward<br>
&lt;fantasai> dholbert_: Every form control is stretched in at least one browser<br>
&lt;fantasai> dholbert_: but not every form control is shrunk in at least browser<br>
&lt;fantasai> iank_: e.g. we stretch in block direction but not inline<br>
&lt;fantasai> iank_: webkit and FF together have complete coverage of stretching in inline direction<br>
&lt;fantasai> astearns: change is to stretch in both directions in all browsers eventually?<br>
&lt;fantasai> iank_: correct<br>
&lt;fantasai> astearns: any other opinions?<br>
&lt;fantasai> fantasai: Tab and I are in favor of this<br>
&lt;fantasai> RESOLVED: Semi-replaced elements stretch in both directions in abspos<br>
&lt;fantasai> iank_: We'll likely make this change in the next few months, and will report back if any web-compat concerns<br>
&lt;fantasai> astearns: Thanks, dholbert_, for your investigation<br>
