           Summary: Use ruby specific 'display' property values as per
                    HTML5 spec
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
               URL: http://beta.html5test.com/testcases/ruby/index.html
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML DOM
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: niels.leenheer at gmail.com


When HTML5 ruby elements are rendered their display property values are inline or block. The HTML5 specification *1 suggest the use of 'ruby' for <ruby> elements, 'ruby-text' for <rt> elements and 'none' for <rp> elements. Additionally 'ruby-base' is suggested for children of <ruby> elements that are not <rt> or <rp> elements.

These display property values correspond to the values defined in the CSS3 Ruby Module *2. Even though full support for this CSS module is not present at the moment, the HTML5 ruby support should use the suggested display property values.

This change is worth 3 points on the HTML5test *3 which currently does not award any points to Webkit for ruby support.
