Specification
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-overscroll-behavior-1


Summary

Propagate overscroll-behavior from the root instead of the body. The CSS 
working group resolved[0] on not propagating properties from the body to the 
viewport. Rather, properties of the viewport are to be propagated from the root 
element eg scroll-behavior[1], scroll-snap-type[2], scroll-padding[3]. As such, 
overscroll-behavior should be propagated from the root element. However, Chrome 
has had a longstanding issue of propagating overscroll-behavior from the body 
rather than the root, which deviates from the behavior of Safari(WebKit) and 
Firefox(Gecko). This feature intends to fix this by propagating 
overscroll-behavior from the root rather than the body. [0]

Anticipated spec changes

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or interop 
issues. Please list open issues (eg links to known github issues in the project 
for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web 
compat/interop risk (eg, changing to naming or structure of the API in a 
non-backward-compatible way).
None
