This was just fixed in Chrome / Edge / Blink: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=835455

https://caniuse.com/css-display-contents says it's fully supported in Safari since 13.1...

I remember thinking this would be so great to have until Subgrid arrives, but I could not use it due to accessibility issues in Chrome and Safari.

While I was developing plain stuff with CSS Grid today, I found myself at a typical problem that would have been solved easily with Subgrid... or "display: contents;"

So I crossed my fingers and checked https://caniuse.com/css-display-contents once again - and woah - it's now pretty much fully supported!?

It was just fixed in Chrome, but what happened to Safari? Did you guys backport a fix to the older versions, that I vaguely remember had issues with it?

So I checked the linked article again on caniuse, the one with the "severe implementation bug" that linked to the issues in Chrome and Safari, to see if the linked issues there had actually been solved.

But it seems not, unless I'm missing something?

I'm afraid that many people will use it now, as I was about to, causing issues for those in need of this being supported. And, based on a quick search on "accessibility browser usage", a fair amount of them use Safari - especially on mobile.
