[css-overflow-4] Clarify canonical order of *-line-clamp longhands

[cdoublev]

Is it max-lines, block-ellipsis, continue? Or max-lines, continue, block-ellipsis?

• Name: line-clamp
• Value: none | <'block-ellipsis'>?
• Canonical order: per grammar
• [...]

The line-clamp property is a shorthand for the max-lines, block-ellipsis, and continue properties.

• Name: -webkit-line-clamp
• Value: none |
• Canonical order: per grammar
• [...]

Like line-clamp, -webkit-line-clamp is a shorthand of max-lines, continue, and block-ellipsis [...]

I would assume max-lines, block-ellipsis, continue, because the grammar of line-clamp takes an explicit value for max-lines then for , and the grammar of -webkit-line-clamp only takes an explicit max-lines value.

Would you accept a PR with the following clarification(s) in the definition of -webkit-line-clamp?

- Like 'line-clamp', '-webkit-line-clamp' is a shorthand of 'max-lines', 'continue', and 'block-ellipsis',
+ Like 'line-clamp', '-webkit-line-clamp' is a shorthand of 'max-lines', 'block-ellipsis', and 'continue',
  except that:

    * its syntax is ''line-clamp/none'' | <>
-   * it sets 'continue' to ''-webkit-discard'' instead of ''discard''
    * it unconditionally sets 'block-ellipsis' to ''block-ellipsis/auto''
+   * it sets 'continue' to ''-webkit-discard'' instead of ''discard''
+     when an `<>` is specified

Sorry for not catching this earlier. I don't think the order of the prose text is usually taken as a strong indicator or the canonical order, but just to be on the safe side, I agree with your suggestion. Just applied it to the spec (slightly tweaked, to take into account other recent changes).
