[css-display-3] Issues for WG Consideration

Tab and I have closed out most of the CSS Display Level 3 issues.
There are a few still open, but we think it's time for an updated
Working Draft to reflect the latest changes.

To do that, though, we need to make sure that the changes reflect
CSSWG consensus, and several issues need CSSWG review:

1. Defining box ↔ element style correspondence
    Issue:   https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1643
    Changes: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/commit/b2d484c6ab9c4dbdb8fdca899e2d37d59d6953e3

2. Adding appendix of anonymous box construction guidance for spec authors
    Issue:   https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1643#issuecomment-374414522
    Changes: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/commit/533ac0a31b0262c4a0d09c77e19604666fe35e14
    Spec:    https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-3/#box-guidelines

3. Blockifying 'run-in flow-root' to 'block' (for consistency with inline-block)
    Issue:   https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1715
    Changes: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/commit/4a8afc522477d24032665c9ff3ceed9f76aaa6b4

4. 'display: contents' on MathML
    Issue:   https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2167
    (This should also get reviewed by the MathMLWG; we'll send
    over a request for review along with the WD announcement
    after an initial proposal is accepted by the CSSWG.)

5. 'display: contents' on SVG elements
    Issue:   https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2118
    (This should also get reviewed by the SVGWG, but CSSWG + AmeliaBR
    should be good enough until we forward the WD announcement
    with a more formal request for review.)

6. Clarify (non-)effect of 'display' on document semantics and assistive technology
    Issue:    https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2355
    Proposal: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2355#issuecomment-375084853
    Looking for a review of the proposed text and any suggestions for improvement.

We've also updated the Changes list to capture all significant changes
since the last Working Draft in July 2017:
