I love the little typographic thing where if you’re reading a block of text that is in italics, that when an italic word is needed within that, it is unitalicized (like that). I’ve seen that expressed in CSS like: em em { font-style : normal; } Code language: CSS ( css ) That’s probably smart to have, but not all italics are necessarily within an <em> tag. You could want all your blockquotes italicized, for example, and the above selector won’t help with that. That’s one of the reasons I think Style Queries are cool. Well… I guess possible future Style Queries, anyway. I’m imagining this working: blockquote { font-style : italic; } @container style( font-style: italic) { em { font-style : normal; } } Code language: CSS ( css ) To be clear: that doesn’t work. You can’t just write a style() query for any style . But perhaps you can see how that would be useful if you could.…
