Re: min-width:25%

Hi, Max and Lachlan, 

See:

  { min-width:25%; width: 20em }
  { min-width:20em; width: 25% }

are equal - min(x,y) == min(y,x) in Euclid geometry.

Considering that two other possible cases

  { min-width:25%; width: auto }
and
  { min-width:25%; width: 50% }

are *complete* nonsense I propose to remove percentage 
from list of available units of min/max-widths.
