That's the easy part. How do you allocate space once you split a flex item in half? > Also just a quick question, is it possible to ask flex layout to ignore flex lines (or a different working mode for flex > lines) and make flex items stack as tight as possible in the cross axis? The use case is to enable a jquery masonry > (http://masonry.desandro.com) like layout. Well, you'll note that masonry layout also has lines. :) They're filled in a different order, though: instead of filling one line and going to the next, you fill the next most empty line. It's been brought up before, but since it's a fundamentally different layout than what we have here, it's been deferred to a future layout module, maybe Level 2 of Flex Layout. ~fantasai
