Description Phil Cupp 2012-03-16 02:26:59 UTC 
The '.' denotes whitespace in the template layout module's template definition syntax but isn't mentioned in the grid layout spec.  It probably makes sense to add this to the grid-template property.

Also the '@' denotes a default slot in the template layout module's template definition but isn't mentioned in the grid layout spec.  The '@' may not belong in the grid spec as the grid doesn't flow its content into a slot, elements layer instead.  Rather than adding '@' it may make sense to just use the auto-placement feature instead.

Bulk assigning bugs to pcupp@microsoft.com.
Comment 2 Tab Atkins Jr. 2013-08-19 22:02:41 UTC 
Done - the "." indicates an unnamed cell in the template.  We're not using @, as we don't have anything that uses the notion of a default slot any more.
