Hello TAG!

I'm requesting a TAG review of CSS text-spacing property and their longhands.

This property is a shorthand for setting text-spacing-trim and text-autospace in a single declaration. They control the typographic behavior for Han-derived scripts, specifically Chinese and Japanese. Traditional Han-based Korean is also included but Hangul is usually not included.
