Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-overflow-4] Do not remove overflow: overlay (#6090)

(It's not the only one: select is also famously difficult to customize to fit in with the rest of the design or to add desired features, but at least that is replaceable cleanly; custom reimplementations of scrollbars have many terrible effects)

It was way easier to do it with CSS. Why require JS?
