[snappoints] behavior when the maximum scroll position isn't a snap point

Hi,

What should engines do when scrolling to the edge of a container with
snap points if there isn’t a snap point at the maximum scroll position
in the container? In this case, some of the content might be unreachable
by scrolling—when scrolling toward the end, the scroll offset would
animate to the closest snap point, which is behind the scroll offset,
causing it to “bounce back” from the end. Is this even a problem, or is
this effect something authors might actually want?

One way to prevent this would be to add “implicit” snap points at the
ends of the container, so all content in the container can be reached by
scrolling.

What do you think?
