Is there a way to inherit something from a grand-parent of a CSS element, skipping the parent?
 
 What I'm aiming at is that I have my main text flow in a div with
 specified width and margins, and I would like some elements (headings)
 to extend outside that main div. On the left side, it is easy, since I
 have a specified margin-left, and I can just use a negative margin for
 the heading. On the right side, it is trickier. If I use a hard-coded
 negative margin-right, the headings won't adjust to different window
 widhts. Setting width:100% makes the rightmost end stay within the
 containing div. Is it possible to make the heading 100% wide with
 respect to the window/body instead of its container?
 
 This is no big deal, but if it's possible, I'd like to know how to do it.
