Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-text] For most languages, hyphens:auto should not hyphenate Capitalized words (#3927)

@frivoal Well, then it seems that every browser has misinterpreted the specification massively, since all browsers that support hyphenation have now changed the implementation to only hyphenate capitalized words in German and not in any other language. And no browser hyphenates the first word in a sentence.

I was sent here after filing a Chromium bug, so naturally I assumed that the spec was the cause of the issue. While it is clear that the spec only gives English and German as examples, this has clearly been misinterpreted by implementers. Which just goes to show that my point about sufficient knowledge of different languages being needed, both when making specs _and_ implementing them.

But I agree that from that text in the spec, browsers have no reason to have the implementation they currently have. I will continue the conversation in the various browser issue trackers.
