Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] CSS view transition auto name generation (Issue #1001)

jyasskin left a comment (w3ctag/design-reviews#1001)

In those minutes, I see a "PROPOSED: Introduce keyword for element identity, some other syntax for using the element's ID, and auto keyword that switches between the two", followed by "RESOLVED: Add three keywords, one for ID attribute, one for element identity, and one that does fallback between the two." That is, the WG modified the resolution text to drop `auto` (though without any recorded discussion describing why). You definitely didn't make up the keyword from whole cloth, but that reads to me like the WG knew it hadn't yet confirmed `auto` was the right name, and then forgot to come back to it.

I wonder if we/the CSSWG should write a [CSS design principle](https://w3ctag.github.io/design-principles/#css) about taking extra care when proposing `auto` as a property value...
