Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-view-transitions-2] [scoped] Per-axis clip for auto-nesting? (#13639)

> If the proposal is to use overflow-x/y: clip depending on which axis is set, seems fine?

If by “is set” you mean “whether the scope has overflow in that axis”, then yes.

The TLDR is that the current _“apply `overflow: clip` if the scope has overflow”_ is too broad as it clips overflow on _all_ axis. The proposed change is to do this on a per-axis basis, so that the things that you see during the view transition matches the things you see on the original element.

In the current situation you could end up with overflow suddenly getting clipped during the VT.
