Er, yes. I clearly misread something.... Good catch!
I just read through your proposal carefully again, and it seems to match
the behavior my proposal produces as far as I can tell.
One remaining issue: with the modification to your definition of
consecutive boxes, at what point does the whitespace get dropped in the
<div style="white-space: pre">
<span style="display: table-cell">a</span>
<span style="display: table-cell">b</span>
</div>
testcase?
