Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-display] Can <br> / <wbr> elements be blockified? (#7049)

@dholbert - A little, I think I understand your behavior now a little more.

Yeah so for us - we effectively ignore the `display:block` etc on the `<br>`, `<wbr>` elements, and this is the main difference. I find our behaviour a little more intuitive here.

Reading up on a few past issues brings up:
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/610
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5749

Interestingly the reasoning in latter issue contradicts the rationale former issue (I think - from my very quick reading of them).

My sense is that treating the `<br>`,`<wbr>` elements as close to "text" is desirable, and explains the various implementations apart from Firefox (happy to be wrong here, just my intuition for what is expected).
