Hello,

I have questions about the border-length property.

http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-gcpm/#the-border-length

    + 1       2 +
    8           3

    7           4
    + 6       5 +

1. Is this order absolute regardless of writing-mode?

If so, in vertical text (writing-mode: tb-rl), the footnote area will be
specified as the following:

  @footnote {
    float: page left;
    border-right: thin solid black;
    border-length: 0 0 4em 0;
  }

Correct?

2. "Percentages: refer to width of element" -- why not "width or height"?

I think that the vertical border's percentages should refer to the height
of element.

Regards,
