After reading on text-align-last[1], I thought it'd be a good time to bring up an old property I tried to implement in webkit a while back. text-remainder (previously line-remainder) is a proposal to control the remainder of a text block. Unlike text-align-last, it doesn't control the alignment but on which line the remainder should be present. Namely, the following text (with the current, default text-remainder value of "last"): Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do ... eiusmod tempor Would, with a value of "first", wrap like this: Lorem ipsum dolor ... sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor Note that while text-remainder is very different to text-align-last, I could see it incorporate its functionality (eg. text-remainder: first center;, first value being the remainder style, the second being its alignment). This functionality could also be used to design proper multiline tab widgets, though that seems kind of irrelevant now. Would love to hear some thoughts.
