Right now WebKit only supports the shorthand form of the text overflow properties, 'text-overflow.' Right now it treats text-overflow in much the same way as text-overflow-mode should be treated, by not understanding a value for text-overflow-ellipsis. As a first step toward full support WebKit should understand text-overflow-mode and treat it the same way as text-overflow. The spec: http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/CR-css3-text-20030514/#text-overflow-props

Please look at the 2012 draft, rather than a draft that is 9 years older. http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-text/

Time flies! This is in the css-ui spec now: http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-css3-ui-20120117/#text-overflow The draft of this property is much different from the 2003 spec.
