http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-flexbox/#flex-align: "If the cross size of the flexbox is less than than that of the flexbox item, it will overflow equally in both directions."

http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-flexbox/#flex-pack: "If the leftover free-space is negative, the flexbox items will overflow equally in both directions."

If you wanted to be thorough, you could add writing mode tests.

I remember why we had this.  It was when you could flex margins.  Maybe mention that in the ChangeLog.
