Yes, yes, yes.
I actually didn't love Adobe's standard, and I thought some of the criticism of it was warranted. But the overall feature would be very nice to have. I'm just not sure exactly how it should be approached.
----
If I can be greedy, I know these aren't necessarily great features to add, but I would love:
- an (optionally) less performant text-justification algorithm: Justified text on the web is basically unusable today, I think because of performance concerns with reflowing containers. There are scenarios though where I would be very willing to pay a performance penalty to get nicely justified text, even if I had to like mark a container in CSS as unable to resize/reflow or something.
- CSS vertex shaders/custom filters: This is never going to happen as far as I can tell because of privacy concerns, and I have no idea how to get around those privacy concerns, and it's a feature I would almost certainly turn off in my own browser for most websites, but... I still want them.
----
Also I'm hoping that 2023 is potentially the year where I can start to feel safer about using container queries: https://caniuse.com/css-container-queries https://caniuse.com/css-container-queries. I think once they hit mainline Firefox, Chrome/Safari/Firefox will be good enough support that I'll be comfortable including them at least in niche projects and just using progressive enhancement and a slightly uglier style as a fallback for other browsers.
