[csswg-drafts] [css-break] Consider removing references to the CSS Regions spec (#12684)

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

== [css-break] Consider removing references to the CSS Regions spec ==
The [CSS Fragmentation](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-break/) spec mentions [CSS Regions](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-regions/) in quite a few places. From what I can tell, CSS Regions are no longer supported in any browser and were never supported in all major browsers to begin with.
[Can I use](https://caniuse.com/css-regions) tells us that the last browser to 'remove' these was Edge, when it switched to Chromium in 2018. Before then, they never were in Firefox, were dropped by Chrome in 2013 and dropped by Safari in 2017.

So my question is:
Is there any reason for these references to stay around? They lead to some WPT test failures in every browser concerning the `avoid-region` value for breaking properties. (which are also listed as 'at risk' in the spec itself)
