Regarding Interop 2027, I was thinking about writing a proposal for `text-wrap-style:balance`. I had some issues with it in the past when adding line breaks. There are a few failing web-platform-tests left. But now that I’m playing with it to remember what’s so broken about it…

It seems that Blink doesn’t care about balancing text after an explicit line break. While Gecko does… something…, maybe balancing all lines except the one with the explicit line break??? I am so confused. At this point, what are the web-platform-tests actually testing for? wpt.fyi/results/css/...
