Specification
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-overflow-4/#text-overflow


Summary
Adds a <string> value to the text-overflow property. This allows web authors to 
specify a custom string (eg, "(more)") to indicate that text has been clipped. 
This provides more design flexibility and can be used to create more 
user-friendly and context-aware overflow indicators.


Blink component
Blink>CSS


Web Feature ID
custom-ellipses


Motivation
Chromium's text-overflow implementation only supports the clip and ellipsis 
keywords, so authors who want a different truncation indicator must truncate 
the text themselves in JavaScript or overlay a positioned pseudo-element on the 
end of the line. Supporting the specified <string> value lets the browser 
truncate the text and render the author's chosen indicator together.
