Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-anchor-position] fallback-position behavior: spec vs. expectation (#12682)

I need to say that in our app there are places that would benefit from the current Safari TP's behavior. Basically, the default direction of a popover could be meaningful, for example, when it is chosen so it does not obscure some important context.

You could still want to have the fallback behavior so you'd see the popover fully when it goes beyond the overflow, but when scrolling back, we'd want to prioritize the “optimal” position. Basically, for some use cases the order of fallbacks (and the original position) does not matter, and it would be great to have the ”sticky” behavior there, but for many other use cases the order _does_ matter, and it would be better to reuse a more preferable option.
