No, it's not. That <div> is display:table-cell, which is not
block-level per 9.2.1 and hence does not trigger the algorithm in
9.2.1.1. And then per 17.2.1 it gets wrapped in an inline-table
anonymous box, which is still not block-level.
But yes, the ordering of 17.2.1 and 9.2.1.1 really needs to be defined
better (and we definitely need a test for this in the test suite).
