Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-viewport] [css-device-adapt?] Really create a css-viewport spec (#7590)

Thank you for the link @cvrebert. Super interesting discussions on this topic.

Now I feel 50/50 about this. 

On the one hand, it sounds like a small gain for the effort, especially since the last attempt was canceled.

On the other hand it feels like an opportunity to improve a fundamental configuration many modern websites have. I guess it could help with following use cases:
- *separation of concerns* between HTML/content and CSS/design.
- *keeping HTML DRY* and help users that author websites in HTML.
- *avoid a human error* where developers create responsive CSS, but forget to add the meta tag in a HTML template (also being able to add this to a normalise/reset CSS file.)
- *flexibility for developers and users* to enable user level stylesheets and developers that do not have access to HTML templates to fix the viewport.

I feel like the "correct" thing would be to have a CSS at-rule, but it might not be pragmatic.

I am super interested in the opinion of others on this.

Is this issue the right place to discuss this or should I use another one/create a new one?

Thanks 
Tobi
