Details

Currently, text-decoration-skip-ink does not work when text-orientation: upright is used with vertical writing modes. Our implementation of text-decoration-skip-ink relies on Skia's TextBlob API, specifically the getIntercepts function. (https://skia.org/user/api/SkTextBlob_Reference#Text_Blob_Text_Intercepts) This API does not support vertical lines or rotating glyphs yet, making skip-ink for upright, vertical text difficult.

Chrome also uses Skia for their text-decoration-skip-ink, and does not have an implementation for vertical, upright text either. The bug for that is here: crbug.com/655154.

Given that, I don't think this needs to block shipping (bug 1573631).
