@Martinspire You can get this with Flexbox, but you also get a slew of other behaviors (elements getting aligned and stretched and whatnot) that you may not want.
This extracts one feature from Flexbox (and to some extent table cells) and makes it a general-purpose one. Like webdesigners have wanted for, roughly, 10 years.

Isn't this already supported via Flexbox? (display: flex, etc)
