Re: [css-text-decor] Emphasis marks and auto-hiding ruby annotation

The situation can happen without auto-hide, and I saw both examples, so the
spec avoids saying which specifically, only "emphasis marks come outside of
ruby" (figure 9 of the spec[1].)

Authors may want to specify in future, or can live with either, I can't
answer at this moment.

In my personal opinion, especially when the middle part is missing, the
former (consistent position) looks better. On the other hand, if emphasis
marks are on the whole paragraph, and only one character has ruby, the
latter might look better. Choosing either by auto-hide or not might be one
possible option.
