> I am not sure if the “Novel” row can be generalized as a novel in general. The text data mentioned in https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2462 is created in a specific way to workaround missing functionalities in CSS. My understanding is that the effect achieved by this style is not specific to novels in theory, and could be desired by anyone. However, in practice, many novel EPUBs (and publications of the same content on the web) use this style because they are particular enough to try and work around the historical deficiencies of CSS (so they are prepared according to http://ebpaj.jp/counsel/guide), while other content that use this style is quite rare. But it does happen. Here is an example: https://www.mofa.go.jp/mofaj/press/kaiken/kaiken6_000123.html For content prepared in this style, regardless of whether it is a novel or not, applying `trim-auto` can be a fairly serious problem, as we may not reliably see the start of any paragraph starting with an opening bracket. -- GitHub Notification of comment by frivoal Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/9511#issuecomment-1776607150 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
