Description
The main usefulness of it is clipping overflowing content from e.g. line-clamp
, but it seems it'd be easier (and more compatible with how -webkit-line-clamp
works now) if this behaved more like visibility: hidden
(i.e., stop painting them) rather than display: none
on the overflowing items?
It'd also be easier to implement, generally, and I'm not sure when it'd be less useful. It might be that I'm missing something obvious?
