As a result of the resolution of Issue 195,[1] 9.2.1.1 (Anonymous block boxes) now says: # When an inline box contains an in-flow block-level box, the inline # box (and its inline ancestors within the same line box) are broken # around the block-level box, dividing the inline box into two pieces # even if either side is empty. [...]. When such an inline box is # affected by relative positioning, the relative positioning also # affects the block-level box contained in the inline box. What does "affects" mean here? That the block-level box behaves as if it itself has position:relative? Or merely that its location on the canvas is translated along with that of the inline? The difference is important because in the former case the z-index stacking could be affected. I suggest we use a clearer wording here.
