r12a has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts: == [css-text] cursive shaping breaks and typographic characters == 8.3. Shaping Across Element Boundaries https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text/#boundary-shaping > for any box whose boundary separates the two typographic character units i'm not clear how typographic units are relevant here – in fact, i think it may be incorrect to invoke them. Apart from the fact that what constitutes a typographic unit is particularly vague here, i think that actually we just want to say "for any box whose boundary separates two characters", where character refers to Unicode code points. For example, these rules should presumably apply to diacritics (it is a common use case to want to colour diacritics or accents differently from a base character), or a part of a grapheme cluster. (See the tests at https://www.w3.org/International/tests/repo/results/css-text-shaping.en.html#diacritics for examples that actually show browsers applying the same behaviour to diacritics as to normal letters.)
