Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-contain] Can we allow absolutely positioned elements to escape a container? (#10102)

A side comment, but I think for transforms the difference is also semantic.  If you're rotating the "contents of an element", how does that affect the position of something in that element's subtree that's actually positioned relative to something outside of the subtree?  Does it escape the transform?  Does it instead add up the translations out to what it's relative to and then subtract back in to the transformed element, and then transform as though it had that translation from the transformed element?

On the main issue here:  the underlying request here seems reasonable to me, though, as long as it's not anchoring to something that's *inside* a container that the positioned thing is outside.  It's less clear to me what is the right way to move definitions/terms around to get that result.
