astearns left a comment (w3ctag/design-reviews#1167) > 1. Regarding the use of `contain` and `cover`: we think this is going to cause developer confusion - whilst re-using syntax is generally a good thing, it seems that the meaning of the keywords here diverges from how they're used in CSS in general. Has the group discussed alternative names - if they were rejected, could you point us to the rationale? This issue discussion is the earliest bit I’ve found for cover/contain in this context: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6674 -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/1167#issuecomment-4509372504 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
