Description Vincent Hardy 2012-04-12 19:46:56 UTC 
Request to add support for an element's rendered content as the shape for exclusions.
Comment 1 Rossen Atanassov 2013-05-23 21:13:38 UTC 
This issue asks that there's the ability to create a shape based on the visible content of the element.

Ex: 
<div style="height: 0px; width: 0px">Hello World</div> 

Will produce a shape that looks like:

Hello
World

Resolved to defer this to a future level of CSS Shapes:

Added to wiki section for future level features:
