Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-anchor-position-1] Which writing-mode does position-try-tactics operate on? (#12869)

The CSS Working Group just discussed `[css-anchor-position-1] Which writing-mode does position-try-tactics operate on?`, and agreed to the following:

* `RESOLVED: add flip-x and flip-y`

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;JoshT> TabAtkins: suggestion from Jonathan to introduce flip-x and flip-y with the physicals<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... we just didn't expand out the full set to have physicals, but I have no problem adding them<br>
&lt;JoshT> astearns: any concerns?<br>
&lt;JoshT> fantasai: no concerns. TabAtkins mentioned shouldn't be combined with logical<br>
&lt;emilio> +1 fantasai, I think it's fine in this case<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... but each of these would be taken in order as transformations so the result would mean no conflict. i think it would be fine to allow it<br>
&lt;JoshT> TabAtkins: but if you do that, it results in nothing. we normally don't let people do that because we don't let people do nonsense like that<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... I don't think you would have a reason to mix them<br>
&lt;JoshT> fantasai: could you combine with flip-start<br>
&lt;JoshT> ... I think we should allow these combinations and allow people to write things nonsensical<br>
&lt;JoshT> emilio: and for the implementation, i don't think it will matter<br>
&lt;JoshT> fantasai: it will make the syntax easier<br>
&lt;JoshT> RESOLVED: add flip-x and flip-y<br>
