The Box Alignment proposal uses the flow-relative terms strictly, with
the -justify properties using start/end and the -align properties using
before/after.

Aligning the two specs would mean Flexbox needs to switch flex-align,
flex-item-align, and flex-line-pack to before/after. Are there any
reasons not to do this?
