The spec doesn't seem to say anything about how inline formatting works when an exclusion divides a line into multiple discontiguous segments of available space in the inline progression direction. This could never happen in CSS before. It seems to me that quite a few issues will need to be sorted out. For example, example 1 in the draft shows hyphenation and justification being applied to each segment individually. This needs to be specified. If the idea is to treat each segment as a different line, that needs to be specified. You would need to specify whether ::first-line applies to the first segment of a line or the whole line. You would need to clarify how text-indent works if the text-indent is wider than the first segment. Etc. Thanks, Rob -- “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. ... If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others?" [Matthew 5:43-47]
