Presumably, if we resolve to remove the special case, any interop issue remaining is an issue with floats in general (not that this wouldn't be worth looking into). Anyway, I've turned the test case I sent earlier into a proper ref test, and made two more tests checking that a floated ::first-letter behaves identically to floated spans with the same content. If we resolve to make that change, I'll submit them. http://florian.rivoal.net/csswg/first-letter-tests/first-letter-001.html http://florian.rivoal.net/csswg/first-letter-tests/first-letter-002.html http://florian.rivoal.net/csswg/first-letter-tests/first-letter-003.html http://florian.rivoal.net/csswg/first-letter-tests/first-letter-001-ref.html - Florian
