Good typography does not need underlined text. ;)
The Working Draft dated 26 February 2003 had values for the |text-
underline-mode| property and related ones, although with improvable
names ('skip-glyph', 'skip-glyph-and-space').
<http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-css3-text-20030226/#text-decoration-mode>
The Candidate Recommendation from 14 May 2003 removed the two
relevant values, leaving 'continuous' and 'skip-white-space'. The
keyword 'words' from the 2002 WD though looks much better to me than
'skip-white-space'.
