#740: CSS property object-view-box review

Visit on Github.

Opened May 18, 2022

Braw mornin' TAG!

I'm requesting a TAG review of a new CSS property : object-view-box.

object-view-box allows the author to specify a subset within an image that should draw within the content box of the target replaced element. This enables an author to create an image with a custom glow or shadow applied, with proper ink-overflow behavior like a CSS shadow would have.
