Re: [w3c/webcomponents] Proposal: a native solution for virtual scrolling (#791)

And I appreciate that, thank you.

I feel that you're being somewhat disrespectful here. Yes, I proposed a new API, because virtual scrolling is used widely on the web and I feel that making it a first-class feature is a good idea, but all I really wanted was to start a discussion around it and see if others also felt it was a good idea. Maybe it *is* confirmation bias—I too think it un-coincidental that all browser vendors independently arrive at element size limits—, but it's nothing to do with "making everyone implement a new API",  all I'm looking for is a way forward. It's true, I would much prefer one that doesn't involve kicking the can down the road, which I feel increasing maximum sizes is. Maybe this issue is too obscure for you to take the time to discuss why you feel it doesn't require a new API but, in any case, a bit of professional courtesy would be nice.
