The getRegionFlowRanges method returns the "fragment from the named flow
that is laid out in the region."

I am assuming the fragment includes nodes with display:none. If an node
with display:none falls on a fragmentation boundary, there is some
ambiguity as to which region the element is "laid out in."

I propose to add this to the definition of getRegionFlowRanges:

---
The Ranges returned may include nodes with display:none situated between
other nodes laid out in the region. If a node with display:none falls on a
fragmentation boundary, it is considered "laid out" in the region with the
previous node. If the first node of a named flow has display:none it is
considered "laid out" in the first region of the region chain.

Thanks,

Alan
