What's the motivation for making flow-from trump content? Could we remove
that text?

I agree that we should swap this trumping.  "content:normal" should
respond to 'flow-from', but other values should override and do their
thing as normal.

I don't have a strong feeling about this. We had to define a precedence rule for the two properties and we picked this one. I have added this to the list of issues.
