Pre-Wrap and White Space Processing

Resolved: pre-wrap preserves all spaces visibly and allows wrapping before and after every space. (Goes into level 3 and marked as at-risk.)
Resolved: Add pre-wrap-auto* which does system-dependent behavior for multi-line text fields (Goes into level 3 and marked as at-risk)
Resolved: Add pre-wrap-trim to level 4

^* to be bikeshedded; better naming suggestions welcome

CSS 2.2

Resolved: FPWD of CSS2.2
Resolved: Republish CSS2.1 with more angry red boxes

CSS Zoom

There was a strong case made for getting rid of CSS Zoom since the implementations vary widely and may never be standardize-able.
Though several people agreed that it should be removed, or at least deprecated, there were some serious reservations about this removal having negative consequences, including a specific concern about accessibility.
This topic will be revisited on Tuesday once more data about usage and potential breakage is gathered.

Scroll Snap Point Behaviors

Resolved: Bring back elements for snap points. Once it is specified, it will be the box that traps all snap points.
