  Hey all. Regarding the removal of that //-1px// border-top. The change (which 
I still support) was suggested a while back (see original task, T307767 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T307767>): me and Alex 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T303558#8012171> noticed that 
cdx-TypeaheadSearch was misaligned with the original TahS – and other 
components – in production. After consulting the Product design team (via 
Slack), some members also expressed their preference for this new visual 
approach.
  
  I decided to capture this desired new direction in the designs (also, at the 
time, Figma didn't allow negative autolayout!). This was brought for discussion 
with the DST, and the task was put on hold due to issues mentioned by @Volker_E 
in this comment: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T307767#8026555";. (I believe 
he meant to write "Issues with adjacent (Option B)", btw). So, this is blocked 
by an internal disagreement that we should try to resolve.
  
  > The reason for the -1px negative margin in past design decision in OOUI was 
to make sure the menu is overlaying the calling element, to also support the 
elevated layering with this visual detail
  
  It's very common for menus to not touch (or even have a 1px margin separation 
with) their inputs, and rely on box-shadow to convey elevation. I don't think 
that the border overlap is essential to reinforce that, and that on the 
contrary, the result of having active inputs that present even borders is very 
desirable. Again, I'd support moving ahead in this direction.
  
  Nevertheless, I understand the logic behind your concern. A way to reduce 
that "Escher effect" potentially caused by adjacent menus could be to apply a 
2px to all menu's border-radius. We can discuss this in a follow-up design 
round. I think that this approach would 1. allow us to convey elevation, while 
2. keeping the menu from overlapping with the input, and 3. removing the need 
to flip border radius for upward-opening menus. I know it's quite a different 
direction, but had to share as it seems to be convenient.
