Re: [css-houdini-drafts] [css-typed-om] Can we avoid property-specific reification rules for most cases? (#1159)

That sounds like an obvious oversight in the spec.
Given that the existing implementations and WPTs already expect a type-based reification, it seems uncontroversial to change the spec accordingly.
@astearns Does a change like this need a resolution or can this be accepted by editor discretion?
