Context
Along the stacking axis, a grid lanes container can contain empty space that is
not an authored gutter.
Problem
Empty space in the stacking axis is very ambiguous, as it can be used for dense-packing
and alignment.
Proposal
- A stacking-axis gap is exactly the authored gutter , the used
row-gap / column-gap value carried by the owning item. Empty
space beyond that gutter is not part of any gap and therefore has no gap
decoration. Otherwise, there would be no way of aligning the decorations above a spanner, which an author might want with rule-break: none;
A stacking-axis gap is only the authored gutter. The full-width spanners (4) and (5) each take one rule; the empty space left under the shorter items (2) and (3) is not a gap and takes no decoration.
