I'm not at all familiar with scripting things, so forgive me if the answer
should actually be obvious to most people, or if I cite an out-of-date spec.
Section 3.4 ‘Page Break Aliases: ...’ says that UAs should "[treat]
page-break-* as shorthands", while
http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Style/css.html#CSS-CSSStyleDeclaration-getPropertyCSSValue
says that getPropertyCSSValue should return null for shorthands.
Do I correctly infer that UAs that conform to css-break must return null
for getComputedStyle(...).getPropertyCSSValue("pageBreakBefore")
(even when there is an explicit page-break-before declaration), while
other (CSS21-like) UAs must return non-null ?
If so, I suggest drawing attention to this (given that this paragraph says that
the intent is to preserve compatibility with CSS Level 2).
Otherwise, I suggest stating what the rules for what it should return in this
case (e.g. with a declaration like "break-before: page" or "break-before:
column" or "page-break-before: always").
(Again, sorry if the above comment arises only because of my unfamiliarity with
this area.)
pjrm.
