Another unpopular opinion about CSS: CSS makes Knuth line breaking hard, but I actually think that’s the *right* call. Greedy line breaking makes it so much easier to support layout features you actually want. Many things are hard in TeX because it does Knuth line breaking.https://twitter.com/littledan/status/1109521891864338438 …

Why do you need to layout everything else to do line breaking? Can't you find the bounding box and then run the usual algorithm?

What is layout, other than finding bounding boxes? :)

It’s not really feasible to implement either in current layout engines AFAICT. Blink’s LayoutNG, WebKit’s new layout, and
@SimonSapin’s victor experiments should be able to do it because they have input and output trees. Still concerned about mem. usage though.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
