Yes, agreed.
FWIW, Webkit (Safari) seems to break shaping at inline boundaries *even when there's no style difference at all*. See https://codepen.io/jfkthame/pen/gOPRpQG, which shows a plausible usage of color on inline elements where interrupting shaping is definitely *not* desired. It looks fine in both Firefox and Chrome, but is broken in Safari; and it remains broken (i.e. the words are not shaped correctly) even if the `span { color: red; }` rule is completely removed.
