Re: [csswg-drafts] [cssom-view][css-text][css-break] Clarify Element.getClientRects

Line break transform mandates for rendering, but it doesn't look to prohibit UAs to split inline boxes to me, does it?

But source lines are not really a problem here. We split inline boxes for many reasons, such as bidi reordering. How UA generates inline boxes for line wrapping or forced breaks are not well defined yet, and that there number of DOMRects for Range.getClientRects vary by UA today, AFAIU.

If the number of DOMRects corresponds to the number of box fragments, and if that includes inline boxes,  it looks like it's UA dependent, no?
