Why I’m excited about text-box-trim as a designer 
I’ve been excited by the potential of text-box-trim, text-edge and text-box for a while. They’re in draft status at the moment, but when more browser support is available, this capability will open up some exciting possibilities for improving typesetting in the browser, as well as giving us more control of alignment and internal spacing in our components, such as a button.
