Summary of the discussion: yeah this seems fine, but there's a more general pushback against linked list-valued properties in general, as they're more expensive in impl than you might think. @dbaron suggests that the expense could be mitigated if we specified that the computed value is truncated/extended to the correct length, rather than having to maintain several distinct-length lists and match them up in some way. I don't have a problem with that? The fact that we don't already do that for the other linked properties (like background-*) seems like an unintentional detail; I suspect we couldn't change it *now* for backcompat reasons, but don't see why we wouldn't have been okay with the originally. If that's the blocker, we can just do it. -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4431#issuecomment-1016731166 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
