Raising concerns here about this resolution and suggest we add this back to the agenda for reconsideration. `app-region` already sees meaningful real‑world usage today ([app-region](https://chromestatus.com/metrics/css/timeline/popularity/702)/[-webkit-app-region](https://chromestatus.com/metrics/css/timeline/popularity/412)). Changing its inheritance behavior would be a big shift for an already shipped property, not just a spec adjustment. In practice, `app-region` is commonly applied at container boundaries (like title bars) that are commonly draggable, with the expectation that inner controls explicitly must opt into dragging. Making it inherited would cause all children to become draggable, leading to unexpected behavior and randomly draggable UI elements that weren't intended to be draggable (e.g., buttons). Given the level of existing adoption and the high risk of unintentional breakage, this feels like a change with substantial ecosystem impact. -- GitHub Notification of comment by kyerebo Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/13101#issuecomment-4035065308 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
