Re: [csswg-drafts] Proposal: CSS Text Transitions & Animations (#13689)

> One thing about CSS animations and transitions that I think needs to be preserved for text animation is that all intermediate states can be represented as static styles (either just with plain properties most of the time, or some kind of `mix()` function otherwise). That implies that we'd have to resolve the problem of how to apply a transform to a text fragment (word, letter etc), and transforms currently only apply to atomic boxes.

@smfr what would the use case(s) be for representing intermediate states of text animations using static styles? Not disagreeing that it's a nice property of what's currently supported, but I think articulating *why* it's useful would help inform how we carry that forward into text animations.
