Description
The syntax for line heights is line-height: <length> | <number> | <percentage> | normal where <percentage> is computed against 1em, and <number> represents a value that computes to itself and resolves against the font-size.
It's not possible to specify line-heights by the amount of gap. We might want to be able to do that. In theory it would be line-height: calc(1 + 2px), but that's not valid.
