Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] text-wrap: pretty (Issue #864)

Thanks for bearing with us - we realize this response is late.
 
There's no way to quantify what is minor, **the end goal is to ensure that authors do not use this as a proxy for a single feature (preventing orphans)** which would prevent it from including more heuristics in the future. So in addition to preventing orphans, the property should control at least one more factor that is *noticeable* in common usage. 
  
Preventing "rivers of white space" in justified text is certainly not minor, but we'd love to also see something that makes a visible difference in other text alignment modes as well.
  
Again, this becomes less of a concern if lower level control over orphans ships at the same time (or earlier).

Also - can you please elaborate on the multi-implementer support - we see that the Chrome Status page lists Webkit and Mozilla as positive but does not link to standards positions.
