We're getting Text 3 to LC soon, so it'd land in Text 4, actually. I like the idea. I'm not sure what best to call it, but it seems useful and easy to understand. Note that we already have a notion of "words" - they are runs of text separated by "word separators", defined in Text 3 <http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-text/#word-separator>. ~TJ
