Multiline flexbox was not proposed by IE, we just were first to try it... We don't really know what kind of use cases will require row breaks. Will be easier to decide when we see some use examples. > I suggest to use 'clear' for that.

It is best to avoid reusing properties unless there is an exact match. 'clear' has multiple values without obvious mapping to flexbox... In this case a new property would work better.
