I'd guess that to the average author, "paint" and "style" would be seem to
be largely overlapping. I don't even know if many authors have heard of
"paint" before or know what it signifies. Also, the "paint" constraints
have as much to do with constraining layout, as opposed to just paint.

What about something more like:
contain: all | scroll | none;

where:
"all" enforces #1-7,
"scroll" enforces #1, 4-7,
and "none" is the default.
