I was just saying it is not a solution, either now as interim, or long term not being the "correct" one. Correct meaning in terms of the others things I mentioned such as user being the one who should decide. And again having to find a font with spacing of X units for space at X point size, is not a solution. The "correct" solution would be a CSS style. Whether it can be implemented is another matter, but then even the interim solution above is not implemented. BTW, I do think the CSS is perhaps the most important standard so far, so do think CSS is relevant. And there are many more important people than me who apparently think that as well. I am humble. I just came here yesterday to make some small suggestions. My bigger fish is in the DOM mailing list, regarding Views and Formatting. CSS is already very useful standard IMHO. -Shelby Moore
