I made a demo while diving deeper (so I could understand the issues better).

This works today in Safari.
At the moment, in the Safari implementation, a negative or zero value for `text-underline-offset` makes the underline disappear. This is unexpected. And, imho, not desired.
I do believe there are legitimate reasons to allow Authors to pull the underline up to be behind the text ("up" in the horizontal writing mode). I really do not like the clamp that prevents this.
At the moment, if one browser allows a negative value, while another makes the underline disappear with a negative value, we'll have a nasty interop problem.
I would prefer we remove any clamp, and expect Authors can be responsible.
