I don't think this quite works, this proposal effectively allows
several properties to alias the same effective value with no way of
clearly resolving precedence.
body { writing-mode: vertical-rl: }
.level1 { height: 2em; }
.level2 { width: logical 1em; }
.level3 { height: 3em; }
<div class="level1">
<div class="level2">
<div class="level3">
What's my height?
</div>
</div>
</div>
What's the height applied to the inner-most div element? The resolved
width would be 'logical 1em' and the height would be '3em'. Which
applies?
