There are a few distinct things here: 1. Describing language conventions for how underlines look in existing media 2. The possibility of speccing a fully-described underline placement algorithm 3. The possibility of adding a single property which can fine-tune the underline's placement Item 1 is not required for item 3, but item 1 is required for item 2. Item 3 is more valuable in the presence if item 2, but is still valuable even without item 2. We have gotten many requests from web developers who think the default underline looks ugly, so they just want to tweak it a little bit. Performing items 1 and 2, while ultimately helpful, will take a long time (and many different people) to complete. Therefore, blocking item 3 on them seems unnecessary, since item 3 solves a real need and is fairly simple. In addition, if we spec item 3 now, it will still be meaningful even after completing items 1 and 2. -- GitHub Notification of comment by litherum Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/459#issuecomment-263441054 using your GitHub account
