The language specifies that this is true for the boxes generated by an element. I don't see a reason why this spec should be different than any other and define everything in terms of the obvious one-to-many relation between elements and boxes. Can you point me to a spec besides the CSS3 Fragmentation (which is where all of this actually belongs) that we can use as an example?

That is a typo, it should say "exclusion box" instead of "exclusion element". I'll get it fixed, thanks.
