So while it's interesting academically to know what relative-position *should* do, in practice it has no utility because you'd never use it anyway.

I was under the impression relative positioning is needed for properly aligned drop caps (left align the "D" at the vertical stroke rather than the left edges of the serifs). But some fiddling with text-indent and/or other margins/spaces might be sufficient, although not as obvious for maintenance purposes.
