Yes, given the wide use of these properties in print formatters, compatibility is relevant. The easiest approach would be to define synonym properties with matching syntax: two separate properties, each specifying a number of lines in a paragraph before or after a column or page break in order for that to be an acceptable break point. The old names would continue to be supported (or added as synonyms when support is implemented), but deprecated. I do agree that the current names are kind of awful for anyone who hasn't studied typography in an English language context. And maybe even for those who have. I like the idea of `min-lines` as a basis for the names. However, I worry that trailing / leading is still confusing, when we are talking about the trailing lines of a paragraph leading the start of a column or page and the leading lines of a paragraph trailing on the end of a column or page. Proposal (slightly verbose but clear): `min-lines-before-break` and `min-lines-after-break` -- GitHub Notification of comment by AmeliaBR Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/11286#issuecomment-2505011440 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
