Re: [css-text][css-conditional] language specific support for hyphenation and justification

This idea sounds like overdesign to me. I think @supports should have a
simple implementation as it does now. I absolutely do not think we should
turn it into an ill-defined way of querying capabilities, like whatever
"nice" hyphenation would be for a given language.

We really should not be designing extensive hyphenation controls until we
have more solid feedback about current implementations. Chrome still lacks
any support for hyphenation, which is sort of baffling. But maybe work is
underway. Some of the properties Dave points out would be interesting. Not
really keen on word spacing, I think that's usually a crutch to work around
poor hyphenation algorithms.

Cheers,

John
