+The following is added to the concepts in scrolling overflow:
+
+Every [=scroll container=] maintains a <dfn export>current scroll target</dfn>.
+It is initially <code>null</code>,
+and is reset to <code>null</code> after any scrolling operations in that [=scroll container=]
+initiated by the user,
+or any script initiated operations that do not have a target,
+or when the target is removed from the document.
+Scrolling operations in the [=scroll container=] with a target Element or PseudoElement,
+set the [=current scroll target=] to that target Element or PseudoElement.
+
+Issue: Setting the current scroll target should be defined in how to <a>scroll a target into view</a>.
+
+Issue: Use the current scroll target as an <a>anchor priority candidate</a> for scroll anchoring.
