A line-area is a special sort of block-area (4.5, 1st sentence), it
does not have any border and padding. Furthermore, 4.4 defines the
behaviour of block-areas and makes special comments that many of those
feature don't apply to block-areas which are line-areas (for example for
start/end-indent).

I doubt this. Last time I read the spec, I got the impression
that lines are not explicit block areas.
