Baseline of inline-table is the baseline of its first row. However, baseline of inline-block is the baseline of its *last* line. I think inline-box is more like inline-table than like inline-block. I was always curious though why inline-block and inline-table are opposite -- there must be a reason! BTW Mozilla and Webkit disagree here: -- Mozilla takes baseline of the first item (if vertical); if pack is 'end' or 'center' the baseline is where it would have been with no pack, which looks like a bug. -- Webkit uses the baseline of the last item in document order (this becomes the top item in vertical reverse box).
