Re: Issue-286 padding

It seems we're making harder and harder the goal of one of the deliverable :

[[ Working Group Note on the application of TTML to HTML5 (i.e. mapping of
TTML to HTML5/CSS3) ]]

Can't we try to extend first-line pseudo element
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-selectors/#first-line ?

Will it be helpful?

It seems we also have to find a similar mecanism for the Digipub IG
