>From [the Firefox bug](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1453451), I see a lot of discussion about what context-value does, and some confusion about how it is not related 1:1 to user units (by design) and whether it should always mean 1px (no); @heycam [clearly explained it[(https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1453451#c27) though: > Without stroke-width:context-value, it's not possible to do anything useful with text strokes in SVG glyphs, and as stroking text becomes more useful (now that the CSSWG has decided to allow it in HTML content, and not just SVG content) there may be more use for this feature in the future. Unless we want to force SVG-inOT to avoid using stroke, or to accept wildly varying and non-useful stroke widths depending on the viewBox used in the font, then `context-value` needs to be well defined in an SVG2 spec, with examples. -- GitHub Notification of comment by svgeesus Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/421#issuecomment-389989131 using your GitHub account
