This is a stunning change from CSS2. I do not believe it is compatible with the existing Web either. We should think very carefully before fixing this.

Created attachment 11109 [details] Patch that fixes the containing block for positioned elements to be the RenderView ("initial containing block" in CSS terms) Here we go. A followup improvement I can make after this goes in is to eliminate the RenderLayer for the root element.
