A really interesting read.

“Naming is always hard, yet it’s just something we have to do in CSS to properly select things. I think it’s time we start naming [CSS releases] like this, too. It’s only a matter of time before “modern” isn’t “modern” anymore.” — Geoff Graham

It’s Time To Talk About “CSS5” — Smashing Magazine

Have you ever wondered what happened after CSS3? It’s common knowledge that we never saw CSS4 come after it, yet we have a plethora of new features that have no similar way of defining when they were introduced. The W3C CSS-Next community group is actively searching for better approaches for how we describe the evolution of CSS over time and identify feature sets as effectively as we did with CSS3 way back in 2009 — and you can help.

Now that CSS Anchor Positioning allows us to "name a reference" in CSS, do we need being able to consume the value of `:nth-child` or similar when naming things?

Something like:

a {
anchor-name: --link-${indexOf};
}

So we could anchor to ANY `<a>` on a page without needing to explicitly give each one of those an `anchor-name`?

I don't much know the View Transitions API, but maybe it could benefit from similar?
