So there's already a (positive) standards position for anchor positioning
as a whole: https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/794. Do
you think `anchor-valid` by itself deserves its own standards position? I
think perhaps we should think about #794 as a position on the entire
feature, including all sub-features. If you disagree, of course I'm happy
to file a new one.

Thanks,
Mason
