[css-text] Consider removing distribute value for text-justify from the spec · Issue #7322 · w3c/csswg-drafts (original) (raw)
Currently there is this note in this section:
For legacy reasons, UAs must also support the alternate keyword distribute which must compute to inter-character, thus having the exact same meaning and behavior.
Looking at browser support for text-justify:
- Chrome only supports the property behind the experimental web features flag
- IE (which used to support this value) is now retired
- Safari has never shipped
text-justify
...which leaves Firefox being the only browser supporting the CSS property.
I suggest that we remove this note from the spec, since there is no clear win in web compatibility in supporting this.
