Created attachment 211685 [details] screenshot of test case Instead of outlining each individual letter, causing the connections between letters to be discontinuous (see screenshot), the entire string of joined letters should be outlined. Note the slight rendering difference in the screenshots below: - Chrome 28 / Mac: http://www.browserstack.com/screenshots/1c4b26b47221a24a47a89856e37cbeffddab4ab0/maclion_chrome_28.0.png - Safari 5 / Mac: http://www.browserstack.com/screenshots/1c4b26b47221a24a47a89856e37cbeffddab4ab0/macsl_safari_5.1.png

Hmm, what's attached is a URL, not a test case. I think we should also attach a copy of the test case.

Created attachment 229787 [details] screenshot (Saf 7 / OS X 10.9) Attaching a screenshot of Safari 7 on OS X 10.9 showing the slight rendering difference, since the images in the original post have expired (sorry!).

Because this property is so rare, making a mask isn't unreasonable.
