Overflow should be rendered as part of the fragmentation context of its containing block. So, for example, let's consider an abspos element inside a multicol element. If the abspos's containing block is an element inside the multicol element, then it will fragment across the columns and otherwise participate in the multicol's fragmented flow. If the abspos's containing block is the multicol box or an ancestor of it, then it will not fragment across the columns (but may fragment, e.g. across pages if the document is printed). ~fantasai
