wisniewskit has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts: == [css-text] Clarify how letter-spacing and word-spacing should affect tab-size. == Recently it was [resolved](https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2016Oct/0068.html) that letter-spacing and word-spacing should affect tab-size, as per this [proposal](https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2015Jan/0548.html): >tab stops are calculated as > n*( width of U+0020 plus letter-spacing plus word-spacing) But this seems strange to me, as tab characters are already affected by letter-spacing, aren't they? (That's what I'm seeing while playing around in devtools in Firefox and Chrome). Why count letter-spacing twice for tabs? In addition, tabs [aren't word-separators in the spec](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-3/#word-spacing-property), which also states: >If there are no word-separator characters, or if a word-separating character has a zero advance width (such as the zero width space U+200B) then the user agent must not create an additional spacing between words. How is this meant to be reconciled? Should the word-spacing be applied regardless of whether there are word-separator characters in the run?
