==== Container Queries Prerequisites ====
There's a lot of anecdotal demand for Container Queries / Element Queries. See replies here:
* https://twitter.com/t/status/939273644043366400
 
We should at least figure out what features / bug fixes we would need to address to even consider something like Container Queries (which we should also give input on)

* one proposal: https://tomhodgins.github.io/element-queries-spec/element-queries.html
 
==== Better Print Support ====
Start looking at what specs and features would significantly improve print support. Much of this is testing and bugfixing edgecases of existing features, some of it may require or benefit from new specs/features.

More specs / features in particular TBD.
 
=== Actively Implementing ===
