Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-overflow] Consider support for multiple-line ellipsis

> Okay, so that brings us to a conundrum: how much of the current behavior do we want to preserve? 

This obviously depends a lot on the web compat implications.  The simplest answer is perhaps to get UseCounters added to chromium for behavior you might want to change and see what hits.  We also now have some ability to compare screenshot diffs of the top 10k sites with and without a change.  I can also easily get a list of sites that use -webkit-line-clamp in some form and digging into a random sample of ~20 would probably give us a pretty good idea of what behavior is required.  Or you could also just spec what you think is probably a good tradeoff and someone could try shipping that and see how it goes :-)
