Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-text-3] Implement or unship word-break:break-word

I am not, very sorry that you are taking it this way.

The last time the working group discussed this, the conclusion of the whole working group (not me particularly) was that this was a bad feature, and that we should only support it if compatibility requires it. This means either all browsers and the spec should support it (because they need to) OR all browsers should remove it because it is not needed. I was just following up on that previous resolution.

So far, there had not been an argument in the working group for this feature being desired even if web compatibility did not require it. I believe this is your point: we should have it regardless of compatibility requirements because it is a useful feature.

I can and should totally have that discussion.

If I understand correctly, you are saying this is useful because since it wraps like `word-break: normal; overflow-wrap: break-word` and it also has an min-content size calculated as if it was `word-break: break-all`, that means you can use it inside table cells without making the cell unnecessarily large. Is that correct? Are there other cases where this is useful?
