Similar to how position: absolute works in CSS it would be very useful if you could define a float boolean to have it ignore the parent’s matrix when updating the transform. This would give the ability to render on-screen with absolute positioning instead of being dependent on its parental hierarchy.

It isn’t that it is difficult, it just seems out of scope. The purpose of the scene-tree in pixi is to parent transforms. If you are grouping in a way that doesn’t want those transforms grouped, that is an application-level concept, not a renderer-level concept.

Additionally, adding another branch to our already strained update loop is probably a no-go. Which means we’d have to do this outside the loop somehow, and it just makes less and less sense.
