I would propose that rather than having this:

  Line Breaks

 
   
   Property Name: break
  
   Value: block-before | block-after | line-before | line-after | auto

   Applies To: all elements

   Initial: auto
 
   Inherited: No


The syntax ought to be this:

   Property Name: break-before, break-after

   Value: block | line | auto

I believe that this allows more flexibilty, if someone wants to create
a break both before and after an element.
