However, we will maintain our current behavior for the case of align-content: stretch. This is contrary to the spec which calls for a fallback to align-content: flex-start when the available space in the container is negative. (e.g. when the child is larger than the container). This fallback behavior is ignored by all major engines and has been shipping with agreement for quite a while. Additionally, stretch is the normal, or default, behavior of align-content. A change in behavior here may have webcompat consequences. I raised an issue with the CSSWG to change the spec to match current browser behavior. Until that is resolved, this bug tracks the unspecified behavior we implement in WebKit for this one case.
