 +=== RESOLVED ===
 +
 +Further discussion revealed that, not only does Flexbox have the problem that its justify/align-* properties aren't necessarily tied to the logical directions (which makes the start/end/before/after keywords somewhat awkward).  So, some favored the start/start/end/end solution better.  Even worse, though, the flexbox's direction can be such that the "main-start" of the flexbox (flex-direction-relative) is actually the "logical-end" side of the Flexbox, so using start/end at all can be confusing.
 +
 +As such, it was resolved to introduce special flex-direction-relative keywords for flexbox.  The properties in question now accept flex-start/end as keywords.
 +
 +The Box Alignment spec will define that flex-start/end map to start/head or end/foot on non-flexboxes, and define start/end/head/foot as properly logical.
