title: CSS display:inherit in IE9
body: <p>Supposedly IE9 supports the display:inherit properly, but apparently it doesn't apply display from an inline parent element such as a span tag to a block element such as a div, unless the display property is explicitly defined.  I made a jsfiddle to demonstrate this behavior:  </p>

  <p>Compare the difference in IE9 and Chrome or Firefox.  If I inspect the elements in IE9 I can see that IE9 thinks it's applying 'inline', but clearly it isn't.  This looks like an IE9 bug.  Unfortunately in the problem that I'm trying to fix, specifying display:inline explicitly on these elements is not a viable solution.  Is there something I have overlooked or something I can do to get the browser to behave like the other browsers?</p>
