Can I suggest we call the pseudo-classes `:widow` and `:orphan`, to reflect the existing Fragmentation Module draft <https://drafts.csswg.org/css-break/#widows-orphans>? `:breaks-on-to-next-page` becomes `:orphan`, matching the parts of element which has additional parts on a later page. `:breaks-from-prev-page` becomes `:widow`, matching the parts of element which has additional parts on an earlier page.
