A bit crazy brainstorming-style suggestion: since the property in question is about _the logical **height**_ of the inline element, what about, instead of introducing a completely new property, just make the plain old `height` property finally applicable to inline elements? But make it accept only two values in that case — `auto` (default, the current behavior), and a new inline-specific value, e.g., `fill-line` (the new proposed behavior). Any other value would be just ignored. This seems to be not conflicting with any potentially existing (by mistake etc.) cases of setting `height` to inline elements. (I would even consider accepting percentages with `100%` being 100% of the line box height, calculated per fragment and potentially allowing creative designs with consistent gaps between lines with something like `height: calc(100% - 4px)`. but realize that it's probably too much and might be not web-compatible:) -- GitHub Notification of comment by SelenIT Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5189#issuecomment-918570798 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
