Such an option was included in my original proposal but it would obviously depend on the details of how style properties were defined as to whether these parameters are needed. Suggest rather than go for a specific device the style sheet address the output size of the 'media' in terms of cells (characters) e.g. the single liner might be 80 x 1. A standard braille page might be 28 x 38. This would accomodate most braille output formats. A single selection would then be usable for a users output, that is one line change to the style sheet would format output for a users preferred media, easily changed when you upgrade to another.
