What is the purpose of the negative margin?

This thread discusses it: h5bp/html5-boilerplate#194 (in short, to avoid an errant single pixel of an item with a background color)

[ZoeBijl]

That can be solved with background: none|transparent; right?

I suppose so, I haven't seen that done or tested. One line of CSS either way?

[mraccess77]

Shouldn't we also add an overflow:hidden; ? also perhaps an !important after the position absolute?

[ZoeBijl]

My original proposal included overflow hidden. Important should be avoided at all cost, what if you want to enable the text/element on smaller/larger screens; don't want to litter your css with a bunch of important's.

Jon, overflow:hidden was in there before and wasn't removed.
