*Summary:*
The Container Timing API enables monitoring when annotated sections of the 
DOM are displayed on screen and have finished their initial paint. A 
developer will have the ability to mark subsections of the DOM with the 
containertiming attribute (similar to elementtiming for the Element Timing 
API) and receive performance entries when that section has been painted for 
the first time. This API will allow developers to measure the timing of 
various components in their pages.

*Bug:*
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1940240

*Specification:*
https://github.com/bloomberg/container-timing (Soon to move into WICG 
first, then W3C)

Because of the similarities to Element Timing, this can't go directly into 
W3C. The working group are happy for work to continue in WICG first whilst 
we come up with a solution to potentially merge the two specifications in 
future. (See responses here: https://github.com/WICG/proposals/issues/260)

*Standards Body:*
W3C (Web Perf WG)

*Platform Coverage:*
all.

*DevTools Bug:*
N/A

*Link to standards-positions discussion:*
https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/1155

*Other Browsers:*
Blink: Positive https://chromestatus.com/feature/5110962817073152
WebKit: considering

*Preference:*
dom.enable_container_timing

*web-platform-tests:*
https://wpt.fyi/results/container-timing/tentative?label=master&label=experimental&aligned&q=container%20timing

Bas Schouten has already provided a patch in the bug, this will be iterated 
on, alongside the specification which myself, Bas and others will be 
looking at.

Thanks!
