[css-grid] percentage padding/margin for abs.pos. boxes with grid container containing block

CSS Grid, chapter 2.3 says:
"Percentages specified for margin-top, padding-top, margin-bottom,
and padding-bottom on a grid item resolve against the height of its
containing block, rather than the width (as for blocks)."
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-grid/#grid-area-concept

The use of "grid item" there excludes abs.pos. boxes with a grid
container as containing block.  I think the rule above should also
apply to such boxes.  So either 2.3 needs to be reformulated to
include them, or 10.1 needs to specify that explicitly.

Thanks,
Mats
