There is also the [CSS Line Grid module](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-line-grid/) that also provides a CSS mechanism for vertical rhythm (including baseline snapping to regular grid lines). But I believe that having better access to the font metrics from CSS would have more use cases other than that. For example, it can be aligning the icon with text (both top and bottom) or removing extra vertical spacing before text (e.g. in the approach described [in this article](https://medium.com/eightshapes-llc/space-in-design-systems-188bcbae0d62#9406)) without having to use magic numbers for each particular font. -- GitHub Notification of comment by SelenIT Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/660#issuecomment-258641334 using your GitHub account
