Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-grid-3] Masonry Switch Syntax (#12022)

The CSS Working Group just discussed `[css-grid-3] Masonry Switch Syntax`.

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;ydaniv> astearns: I see a lot of options but nothing against masonry-grid<br>
&lt;ydaniv> TabAtkins: my pref too<br>
&lt;castastrophe> +1<br>
&lt;ydaniv> ... argument people had against it is that masonry is not common outside English<br>
&lt;alisonmaher> +1<br>
&lt;ydaniv> ... I think it's a great word for it, and we added grid in there<br>
&lt;hoch> +1<br>
&lt;ydaniv> ... there's a recent proposal for staggered-grid but more arguments for non native speakers<br>
&lt;ydaniv> ... so propose to rule out<br>
&lt;ydaniv> astearns: is there anyone against masonry-grid?<br>
&lt;ydaniv> fantasai: I think main argument against is we usually use more descriptive words and not something that look similar to something else<br>
&lt;ydaniv> ... so the more descriptive names are better<br>
&lt;ydaniv> ... masonry-grid is not even common word in english<br>
&lt;oriol> +1 to including masonry in the name, and +1 to ruling out staggered-grid<br>
&lt;ydaniv> TabAtkins: could be said the same for flexbox<br>
&lt;ydaniv> fantasai: not exactly the same<br>
&lt;ydaniv> astearns: what should we do?<br>
&lt;kbabbitt> +1 for masonry-grid<br>
&lt;ydaniv> TabAtkins: fantasai are you against? or just stating it?<br>
&lt;ydaniv> fantasai: against and stating for those that are missing<br>
&lt;ydaniv> TabAtkins: right now we don't have these people on the call, so rather have a poll when they're here<br>
&lt;ydaniv> astearns: fantasai should we wait? Or resolve now?<br>
&lt;ydaniv> fantasai: I think it would be better to have them present on the call<br>
&lt;ydaniv> astearns: ok, moving on...<br>
