Summary -webkit-line-clamp quality of implementation
Sam Sneddon [:gsnedders]
Reported 2021-12-02 10:22:08 PST
Ian (from the Chrome team) has suggested -webkit-line-clamp for Interop 2022: https://github.com/web-platform-tests/interop-2022/issues/16 Essentially, the proposal is to move -webkit-line-clamp closer to line-clamp and the current spec: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-overflow-3/#propdef--webkit-line-clamp (where the value is none | <integer>), and assuming we only care about behaviour when the box with -webkit-line-clamp also has overflow: hidden (i.e., to exclude the spec'd behaviour about discarding the content beyond the clamp). Ian outlines three things in the issue: 1. RTL support, 2. Create a block-flow box instead of a flex box, 3. Support -webkit-line-clamp: none. See https://wpt.fyi/results/css/css-overflow?label=master&label=experimental&aligned&q=webkit-line-clamp for current test results; from the GitHub issue it seems like 008, 029, and maybe 024 need updated to match the spec.

Note that I did just mark this as depending on most of our open bugs for -webkit-line-clamp; I didn't actually audit these beyond very briefly looking at titles and seeing if they looked like dupes.
