Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-text-decor] selective toggling in the text-decoration-skip property.

Not only +1 to selective toggling, I think there is another possible 
problem in the current design.

Let's say authors set `html { text-decoration-skip: ink; }` to their 
pages today.

The spec says:
> Level 4 of this specification defines additional values 
(leading-spaces and trailing-spaces), and uses them in the initial 
value of this property, meaning that by default they are skipped.

So L4 UA must render decorations to leading/trailing spaces only on 
such pages, correct? This is probably unexpected, breaking behavior.

IIUC with the current design, or even with selective design as long as
 we have shorthands, we can't add new values that are skipping by 
default without breaking existing pages.

WDYT?
