https://www.chromium.org/blink/launching-features/#start-incubating recommends putting explainers on Github rather than Google Docs, and I think I see an explainer for this at https://github.com/Igalia/explainers/tree/main/canvas-formatted-text#2-html-in-canvas-placeelement. Is that the right place for reviewers to file issues?
That looks okay to me, but I'll let Fernando chime in on that. The doc I linked has some newer work (like the separation of drawElement() for 3D contexts), but that can be integrated into the Igalia site. Please file issues at the existing WICG site for this work. https://github.com/WICG/canvas-formatted-text/ Okay! Will do.
