It's easier for something to become a standard when it's given a name.
It's funny how the best technique to do something as important as "absolute centering" in CSS, a fundamental technique in web design, hasn't been given a name until today.

.Absolute-Center {margin: auto;position: absolute;top: 0; left: 0; bottom: 0; right: 0;}I'm not the pioneer of this method (yet I have dared to name it Absolute Centering), and it may even be a common technique, however, most vertical centering articles never mention it and I had never seen it until I dug through the comments section of a particular article."
