Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-grid-3][masonry] Masonry Syntax Designer/Developer Feedback (#11060)

Initially my intuitions lead me towards wanting a separate `masonry` display type.

After reading the article, however, I'm strongly convinced of the integrated "Just use grid" approach. The distinction visually between a grid and a masonry layout is not sufficient for an entirely new display property. Masonry really is just a _flavour of grid_, or even a _collapsed grid_. 

I like the `collapse` property too.

I see the distinction somewhat similar to the difference between `flex-direction: row` and `flex-direction: column`. Although arguably they could be distinct display properties I'm glad that they are both nested underneath the flex umbrella. Same does for `grid-template-rows: masonry/collapse` being a part of grid. 

**Just use grid!**
