Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-overflow-4] Ellipsizing of text in middle of string (#3937) from Nicolas Hoffmann via GitHub on 2024-10-15 (public-css-archive@w3.org from October 2024)

Another case we have in Proton Drive: we want to keep the last characters to display the extension of a file (with long filename, for security reasons)

We did implement a solution by splitting the filename thanks to this component https://github.com/ProtonMail/WebClients/blob/main/packages/components/components/ellipsis/MiddleEllipsis.tsx but when we have a mix of RTL/LTR, it's a nightmare.

A native solution with an offset would be really helpful there :)
