Re: [css-ruby] jukugo ruby and interleaved bases

Dear fantasai,

I changed my mind since I posted that message several months ago.

Yes, indeed, I wanted "a(A)b(B)c(C)" to be rendered as Jukugo Ruby if
possible, as when EPUB3 is published two years ago, that was the only
official way for assigining ruby texts to multiple ruby bases.

However, since then, I thought it would be quite difficult for
interleaved ruby bases to form one big base container, and
considering the possibility that EPUB content model would immediately
incorporate the HTML5 PR when it is published, I changed my mind that
it would'nt be dare necessary....

With best regards,
