[csswg-drafts] [css-overflow] Should overflow-clip-margin apply to scrollable boxes? (#10745)

emilio has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== [css-overflow] Should overflow-clip-margin apply to scrollable boxes? ==
I kinda expected `overflow-clip-margin: content-box` to work on scrollable boxes. This would only be useful for `content-box` (because you can't specify a negative clip margin).

I.e. I'd expect these two elements to render the same.

```html
<!doctype html>
<style>
  div {
    width: 50px;
    height: 50px;
    border: 1px solid;
    padding: 10px;
    overflow-clip-margin: content-box;
  }
  span { height: 100px; width: 100px; background: green }
</style>
<div style="overflow: clip"><span></span></div>
<div style="overflow: hidden"><span></span></div>
```

Should they? That would allow achieving the same magic clipping behavior that some form controls (like `<input>`) have.
