Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-break] box-decoration-break and multi-box inline elements

> but layout treats the two equivalently, for instance.

Sorry, but browsers seem to disagree ([see a fork of ](https://jsfiddle.net/djsah1g2/1/)@Loirooriol's example). The rendering effect, regarging borders, paddings etc, is clearly different.

Yes, CSS2.1 describes this difference (not expressible in CSS2.1 terms!) as a special case of two boxes rendering, but this was before the fragmentation concept, and visually the behavior of inline content in this situation looks rather indistinguishable from the fragmentation of inline content fragmented between fragments of a block box fragmented between two column or page boxes.

Also, the CSS2.1 uses the term "the block-level box contained in the inline box". Maybe, if the box is now a pre-rendering concept (according to [your explanation](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1604#issuecomment-318725749) in #1604), it would be better really to consider this situation as a three block boxes contained _in_ the single inline box, and two inline box fragments divided between two of them?
