Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-lists] Should collapsible space after inside ::marker be preserved? (#4891)

The CSS Working Group just discussed `end`.

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;dael> Topic: end<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: We'll go back to the issue and add spec text there<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: There was a proposal that eats whitespace. We could use that.<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: whitespace-trim or something like that?<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: Yeah. That's another option. We can re-use that and set it on the marker and it's pretty normal.<br>
&lt;fantasai> https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text-4/#white-space-trim<br>
&lt;dael> astearns: Interesting<br>
&lt;dael> florian: Magic is bad but a generic system is fine<br>
&lt;dbaron> github: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4891<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: That's my recommendation. Use that property to do magic.<br>
&lt;dael> oriol: Impl?<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: No<br>
&lt;dael> TabAtkins: Not certain it works. We want to preserve whitespace but we don't want whitespace from marker and content start to both preserve.<br>
&lt;dael> dbaron: Don't think that'st he case. Shouldn't have different mark up depending on spaces after li. Not collapsing 2 things, get rid of one<br>
&lt;dael> TabAtkins: How with trim?<br>
&lt;dael> fantasai: Set it on after marker<br>
&lt;florian> https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-4/#white-space-trim<br>
&lt;fantasai> ::marker { text-space-trim: discard-after }<br>
&lt;fantasai> ScribeNick: fantasai<br>
&lt;fantasai> florian: Interesting approach to solving it, would also be useful for other things<br>
&lt;fantasai> florian: My concern with option 2 was I didn't want a special magical kind of white space, avoids having to define all the weird cases like does it hang at the end of a line etc.<br>
&lt;astearns> https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/8nb60o5c/image.png<br>
&lt;fantasai> florian: Probably need to define how the discarding interacts with bidi, but needs to be defined either way for the feature ...<br>
&lt;fantasai> Meeting closed.<br>
