Summary empty inlines should not affect line-wrapping

Reported 2009-05-07 20:29:15 PDT
Putting an empty span in the middle of a word should not make the word breakable at the span position. See this page for an example: http://www.plexode.com/cgi-bin/eval3.py#ht=%3Cdiv%20style%3D%22background-color%3Ared%3Bwidth%3A1px%22%3Ewo%3Cspan%3E%3C%2Fspan%3Erd%3C%2Fdiv%3E&ohh=1&ohj=1&jt=&ojh=1&ojj=1&ms=100&oth=0&otj=0&cex=1 I'm not sure why this is correct, but roc claims it is and this is what IE7 and FF3 do.

The CSS spec does not define linebreaking in enough detail to say whether this bug is valid. However, I think as a matter of principle inserting unstyled <span>s in and around inline content should not change rendering.
