<jon_avila> I agree icons for disabled is too complicated for 2.2

jon: interest in addressing sticky headers. Maybe an SC.

jim: maybe a technique?

jon: to fail it we need an SC

wayne: patrick has discoved some holes in reflow.
... not just position sticky or fixed.
... carousels can be unusable.

jon: when a container is not wide enough it can be difficult to read.
