Should this list also include the values from CSS3-lists (particularly near http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-lists/#predefined-numeric)? The current short list probably exists for legacy compatibility reasons with existing markup. However, it would be good to recognize the wider world of list-style-type. This could be accomplished by explicitly allowing the fully-qualified names of CSS-Lists attributes as values of the type attribute. 67451 1 ian 2012-05-08 00:24:40 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment. If you are satisfied with this response, please change the state of this bug to CLOSED. If you have additional information and would like the editor to reconsider, please reopen this bug. If you would like to escalate the issue to the full HTML Working Group, please add the TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest title and text for the tracker issue; or you may create a tracker issue yourself, if you are able to do so. For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Rejected Change Description: no spec change Rationale: There are literally over a hundred of possible values here if we go down this road. Better to just have the short list we have now for legacy reasons and let authors use CSS to actually pick the style.
