Blocks of text adjustable
Core requirement
The presentation of blocks of text can be adjusted, without loss of content or functionality, to meet the @@ [values to be determined] for:
- Inline margin
- Block margin
- Line length
- Line height
- Justification
The requirement is that the text is manipulable and the style attributes can be overridden.
Except when the style attribute is hard-coded, such as raw text that is capitalized or hyphenated.
If you are aware of research in this area, especially involving non-Latin scripts, please email public-agwg-comments@w3.org.

Procedure
For each block of text:

- Check that the text is changed by the override.

- #2 is true.
