What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Render an abspos element with `display:block` in its static position
(2) Due to `display:block`, it won't appear in the same line as preceding text
(3) Set `display` to `inline` with JavaScript

What is the expected result?
The static position is in the same line as preceding text, just like if `display` had been `inline` from the very beginning

What happens instead?
The abspos element remains in the next line.

It works well with LayoutNG.
