This seems actually consistent with the XSL-FO Rec.: see http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice7.html#text-decoration All the way down, it says: <q>This property is not inherited, but descendant boxes of a block box should be formatted with the same decoration (e.g., they should all be underlined). The color of decorations should remain the same even if descendant elements have different "color" values.</q> > But the same cannot be said about 'font-weight' property.

This indeed seems like a bug, unless I'm missing something. > Also, what do I need to do in case I don't want to inherit any > parent block properties in a subsequent block within a parent? Easy. Just set them all explicitly to the desired values, apart from 'text-decoration' of course, for which the only workaround seems to be not to specify it on the parent block, but only on the child blocks that actually do require it.
