I think I was talking to that same guy on stackoverflow[1]  -- I
suggested using "min-height: 100%" on a grandchild of a flex container,
and then noticed that it didn't work in Chrome, which prompted me to dig
further & send this email. He mentioned there that he'd spoken to you &
that you suggested something else that worked.)

Cool. That's what I thought; I just wanted to be sure the general
definition's "specified explicitly" text wasn't meant to be taken too
literally.

Thanks for the quick response!  I'll go ahead and file some bugs.
