My vote is with Joe on the hanging indents. Yes, they can be done with CSS1, but the method is counter-intuitive. It takes me most of a page to describe the method in the macro-typography guide at http://www.piggin.net/poetry3.htm and frankly, it's an unnecessary hold-up when we are trying to teach the world to love CSS. Even if there is an element of redundancy, I think the hanging indent should be written into the spec. It's analogous to a shorthand: a quick route to achieve what the spec assuredly does in a more roundabout way.
