cvrebert has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts: == [css-display] "root element" is undefined == https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display/#transformations > The root element’s display type is always blockified. https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display/#initial-containing-block > *initial containing block* > The containing block of the root element. ---- The term "root element" is neither hyperlinked nor explicitly defined. My skimming of the DOM spec is that, while it defines [tree](https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-tree), [root](https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-tree-root), and [element](https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-element), the root of a normal DOM tree would instead be the `Document` node. Nor does DOM appear to define how its definition of "root" would/could be modified by the adjective "element". Searching further, it appears to me that [**document element**](https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#document-element) would be the correct term to use in these cases.
