Following is a substantive comment on section 11, "Visual effects"
(<http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-CSS21-20020802/visufx.html>), of the
Cascading Style Sheets level 2.1 draft
(<http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-CSS21-20020802>).



11.1.2 Clipping: the 'clip' property


"The 'clip' property applies only to absolutely positioned elements."

Why is this?  (And this restriction should, anyway, be in the definition
table in the 'Applies to' field.)
