(I apologise for the off topic) A front end developer here -- I can assure you, developers want and need this feature. Here are few quick examples:
* alignment: making a an icons, checkboxes (containers) as big as the line height, thus ensuring correct alignment * height of currently empty containers: instead of relying on ::before with zero width whitespace, we can set correct min height, by using lh. Not to mention that newer versions of some sass preprocessors decode the \ encoded white space... * square icon buttons: having the line height as a unit can be used in computation * and obviously, making any box as tall as a line of text, or a couple of lines of text... That helps with implementing design correctly and making skeleton type components a breeze. Or, if a more concrete example is required: in the web interface of google groups, when I reply / write there are tokens (chips according to Material guidelines). The icon and remove button are perfect candidates for being sized with 1lh -- change the font-size, you change the entire thing. Like I said, if you deliver, we front end developers will use it right away! -- Ivan On Wednesday, October 19, 2022 at 4:37:32 PM UTC+3 [email protected] wrote: > LGTM3 > > On 10/19/22 5:23 AM, Yoav Weiss wrote: > > LGTM2 > > On Wed, Oct 19, 2022 at 11:22 AM Manuel Rego Casasnovas <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> LGTM1 >> >> On 17/10/2022 15:52, Rune Lillesveen wrote: >> > Asking for both lh and rlh: >> > >> > https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/75 >> > <https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/75> >> > https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/699 >> > <https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/699> >> >> WebKit has shipped this and Firefox is positive. >> >> Thanks for filling these. >> >> Cheers, >> Rego >> > -- > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "blink-dev" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/d/msgid/blink-dev/CAL5BFfUwb34ig5ewG488f88sjYjfN1OUp0z%3DeX3TUjf5RkuZBg%40mail.gmail.com > > <https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/d/msgid/blink-dev/CAL5BFfUwb34ig5ewG488f88sjYjfN1OUp0z%3DeX3TUjf5RkuZBg%40mail.gmail.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "blink-dev" group.
