> I thought the WG agreed to gate this skipping behavior on the lang= attribute, rather than Unicode properties. Am I misremembering? I think you're misremembering (at least according to my memory, which of course is fallible!) The trouble with gating on `lang=` is that it's so often not appropriately set. This is particularly true for dynamic pages (e.g. search results) and pages hosting user-generated content, where the author cannot predict what languages will be present, but there are also cases of primarily-CJK pages tagged with `lang=en`, or no `lang` attribute at all, where using the attribute to control skipping behavior will give inferior results. -- GitHub Notification of comment by jfkthame Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4276#issuecomment-617673964 using your GitHub account
