+1 for "min-width: min-intrinsic". I think that overflow shouldn't 
have such control over size of the blocks.

Should there be restrictions with intrinsic values? Does all of 
these make any sense (when applied alone to a single element):

min-width: min-intrinsic;
min-width: intrinsic;
min-width: max-intrinsic;

width: min-intrinsic;
width: intrinsic;
width: max-intrinsic;

max-width: min-intrinsic;
max-width: intrinsic;
max-width: max-intrinsic;
