<details><summary>on good faith, etc</summary> So, to explain: > I'm just not sure if this is a productive contribution. I think I've made it clear that I'm not okay with "bad results" and that I'm explicitly trying to avoid being "surprising to authors". A fair complaint and, to be clear, I have considered some of your contributions of the form "this is what we shipped, so work around it" and "there should be no defined gma at all" to not be at all positive either, particularly when you ignore other people pointing out flaws in your reasoning. But I have not said so publicly, and put this response inside a details/summary to avoid waylaying the technical discussion. Quoting the Priority of Constituencies was certainly intended to be positive, and a reminder of the "breaks author expectations" in the issue title. That should not be contentious in the slightest. Adding a (hopefully wrong) "because" statement to what you said was indeed intended to be a spur for you to correct whatever was wrong. Because "canvas will do naive clip for performance, and CSS will just have to suffer the same for consistency" has seemed to be your position for some time, and I wanted to see you either admit it or provide correction. Basically we have a clear and detailed specification (thanks to the abundance of detailed comments from authors and implementers), now shipped across all browsers, and content authors convey widespread surprise and frustration that it doesn't do what was promised because some implementers chose to deliberately ignore some parts of that specification. </details> -- GitHub Notification of comment by svgeesus Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/9449#issuecomment-1981633574 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
