[css-ruby] Limiting leading/trailing space with ruby-align:space-around #5918

Open
@frivoal

Description

The behavior currently prescribed by ruby-align:space-around is not quite the one that JLREQ or Simple Ruby calls for: They limit the amount of space at the edges to 1em of the ruby annotation font size, to ensure that the annotation obviously spans across the entire annotated base text. Should we encode this limit into the definition of space-around?

JLREQ: https://www.w3.org/TR/jlreq/#fig2_3_21

See also Antenna House's user manual, which calls for the same behavior. Not suggesting we add support for the property they have to control this in L1, but its initial value matches.
