HIQaH! QaH! TAG!

I'm requesting early TAG review of my proposal for CSS Container Queries.

Media-queries allow an author to make style changes based on the overall viewport dimensions -- but in many cases, authors would prefer styling modular components based on their context and available space within a layout. My proposal builds on David Baron's @container approach, which works by applying size & layout containment to the queried elements. In order to make that less restrictive for authors, I've also proposed a path forward for inline-size (and maybe block-size) values on the contain property.
