[css-shapes] <image> intrinsic dimensions

Hi,

The specification allows to use images to calculate the shape outside. Some images do not have intrinsic dimensions. It is currently not specified which sizing algorithm should be used. CSS Images does define a default sizing algorithm [1] which should be sufficient enough to use IMO. I assume that the relevant object is the float.

However, for <basic-shape>s the spec allows to use the 'box-sizing' property to define the rectangle that is used for percentage resolving. Do we want that for CSS Images too (which takes the padding box right now IIRC)? Maybe it is not worth it to discuss that for the first level and just referencing the default sizing algorithm is ok.

Greetings,
Dirk
