The CSSWG agreed to remove some special-cased behavior for the last line for 'text-justify: distribute' now that we have a 'text-align: justify-all' syntax. We have another special behavior, though, which is its behavior when the text is unexpandable: it is centered. In all cases justification falls back to whatever was specified for 'text-align-last'. However, if that value is also 'justify', then we need to come up with something else. Currently that is center-alignment for 'distribute' and start-alignment for everything else. Possibilities for fallback alignment: A. Justification always falls back to center. B. Justification always falls back to start-alignment. C. Justification fallback depends on 'text-justify' as currently. I don't think B is a good idea because it's in fact quite common in CJK to justify the last (often only) line of text and want it to fall back to centering. I also prefer to fully decouple 'text-justify' from fallback alignment, so my preference is A. Thoughts from others? Note: We can extend text-align to take an explicit fallback alignment in the future in any case. This would just be the default. ~fantasai
