It would be very useful if you could implement ascent-override, descent-override, and line-gap-override.

Chrome and Edge support the properties, and they are currently getting implemented in Firefox: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1681691 I hope that they will get implemented in Safari soon.

Chrome, Edge, and Firefox support it. Safari now is the only major browser which doesn't support this feature. Please implement it soon.

+1 these properties (along with size-adjust) would be useful for any application that allows users to change their preferred typeface.

+1 I'd love to see this 3 years old standard feature on every other browser engine (Blink/Geko supports it since 2021) becoming a standard in all browser engines.
