Issue identified, needing investigation
This issue is applicable to languages using the Ethiopic script, but the principle probably also applies to a number of archaic scripts.
We are currently investigating whether there is really an issue here.
When underlining a word followed by an ethiopic wordspace, the punctuation should also receive the underline. (See the relevant section in the Ethiopic Layout Requirements doc.)
The CSS Text Decoration spec, Level 4 currently says that text-decoration-skip:spaces would not underline Ethiopic word spaces. This seems like a basic issue.
A test is available for this, but text-decoration-skip:spaces doesn't appear to be supported yet by browsers. The issue may arise when implementations begin to provide support for that value.
