FWIW.
No surprise there; it's ostensibly new in CSS3, but pretty broadly supported. Except, apparently, by Kindle's previewer. That's really bizarre, given that it has been supported in WebKit since Kindle Fire was barely a gleam in Amazon's eye, but... could be related to their buggy font engine.

Then 32 seconds to open the previewer. It's a bugger, isn't it?
Yup. And even more amazing, that site appears to be served up using their cloud platform. Not exactly a ringing endorsement.
