Dear Sirs,

I am writing you because I am worry that style information may 
occasionally alter semantic part of an HTML document. What I find not 
allowable.

Particularly it is a CSS rule «text-decoration: line-through».

E. g., when user switches-off an alternative style sheet containing an 
above mentioned rule, the text

  “it is n̶o̶t̶ specified”

is altered to the text

  “it is not specified”.

May be to return some former HTML properties influencing on the semantic 
part, such as 〈font strike〉?

Best regards,
Cyril.
