Thanks for the information.

So, let me use an example to check if I'm getting the new wording right:
<div style="display: grid;">
  <div style="grid-row: 1; grid-column: 2;">item 1</div>
  <div style="grid-row: 1; grid-column: span 2;">item 2</div>
  <div style="grid-row: 1;">item 3</div>
  <div>item 4</div>
</div>

The items will be placed at:
* item 1: 1st row, 2nd column.
* item 2: 1st row, 3rd and 4th columns.
* item 3: 1st row, 5th column.
* item 4: 1st row, 1st column.

So, even if we're in sparse mode, "item 4" is inserted in the hole of
the first cell. Because of the auto-placement cursor starts in 1,1 in
step "3. Position the remaining grid items".

Just wanted to confirm that this is the expected behavior.

Thanks,
  Rego
