negative line spacing in Text

[Phil Race]

I looked at the source and it is a double property that is just added to 
the default line height
So I don't see why it would just cause line wrap to fail such that text 
was all on the same line,
which is how I am interpreting what you are saying.
Perhaps if you are using too large a negative value something I'm 
overlooking is clamping it ..

FWIW line-spacing is not a W3C CSS property so far as I can tell, so it 
is just FX CSS
There is line-height in the W3C spec but it is specified differently.
