Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-ruby][css-text-decor] Underline position for Japanese text with ruby

[Reply](https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2015Jul/0002.html) from @kojiishi:
> Right, but UA could preserve spaces always, or offset in paint time and overflow if that's more appropriate. I mean, I'm not suggesting that's good, but there are several options when Xidorn said "can do something".

Because "text-underline-position" is not implemented widely yet, and because it defaults to "left" (Chinese), and because of how Blink/WebKit renders CJK underlines today, most EPUB authors I know choose "border-right" instead. Common Japanese vertical CSS includes, for instance:
>
> ```
> a {
>   text-decoration:none;
>   border-right:thin solid;
> }

> I interpret this as an indication of rendering that way is less bad than other issues.
