I agree.
Maybe not as brief an explanation as mine, but seems to say the same and
a bit more (unless my Norwenglish is letting me down, which happens at
times).

That was the whole point in that part of my response, as it seems like
we'll have to use another method, 'hack' or 'graceful degradation' for
keeping 'element-dimensions' out of IE7's sight. Or else we will trigger
the 'Layout' bug that the IE-team won't fix in time for IE7-final -
according to members from that team.
Oh, well... not much of a problem, really. Plenty of selectors in CSS3.
