Research direction

Start by running the listed WPT cases, especially the multicolumn scenarios, to reproduce the incorrect anchor positions. Read the relevant TypeScript implementation and compare its behavior with anchor-position-inline-004.html, anchor-position-multicol-002.html, anchor-position-multicol-004.html, anchor-position-multicol-colspan-001.html, anchor-position-multicol-fixed-001.html, and anchor-position-multicol-nested-001.html. Done means the affected cases position anchors correctly.
