> Ok. But that does not mean we can just remove these existing features. Even if the goal is to refactor/simplify them? I'm under the impression the current spec introduces a lot of 'constants' because it uses a "one-fit-all" page model that's not easily customizable. Using a grid, I could define a model that fits my needs. What will follow is not a true proposal, just some random thought that popped into my mind when reading Daniel's post, here's what we could do (to display a main document (m) alongside its comments (c) and on top of some foot notes (n)) : @page { grid-template: ".hh." ".mc." ".nn." ".ff."; grid-rows: 1.5cm 1fr auto 2cm; grid-columns: 3cm 3fr 1fr 3cm; } @page::slot(h) { content: "Page " get(page number) " out of " get(page amount) " - " the-last-title-found-in-last-page-or-default); color: silver; font-size: 10pt; } @page::slot(m) { flow-from: document; /* reserved flow */ } #page::slot(c) { flow-from: comments; } ... If there's a move toward more genericity and more shared code with already existing concepts (grid+regions+...), we can simplify the spec a lot. Simplifying the spec can lead to more implementor interest and a better support.Received on Sunday, 13 January 2013 18:07:11 UTC
