Spec fiction doesn't help anyone, but I think this is a useful feature, have wished for it in the past when making web sites, and I'd like for it to be widely implemented. This is commonly seen in Japanese typography, as discussed in JLREQ: https://www.w3.org/TR/jlreq/#processing_of_runin_heading Outside of Japanese typography, I'd say [Example 6 from the Display spec](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-3/#example-8e61beaa) is also a perfectly legitimate use of the feature. > If there is web developer/author interest in this sort of "run-in" styling functionality we should redesign a new feature that is based on the host language having a definition/concept of "paragraph" as noted for example in https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/dom.html#paragraph. I'm not sure I understand in what way HTML is incompatible with this, or in what way the feature could be redesigned to be more aligned with HTML ```html <h4>Some Heading</h4> <p>Lorem ipsum… ``` is definitely the markup you would expect in these Japanese examples. The choice to display the heading as run-in is purely stylistic, and if not displayed as run-in, ordinary block layout does the right thing. Would some subtle change in how it's defined make it more easily implementable, while maintaining it's main purpose? I'd like that more than dropping it. -- GitHub Notification of comment by frivoal Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/9784#issuecomment-1903421049 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
