I know this is not the ideal place to ask this, but I am hoping that someone among the listserv users has some knowledge on how to make a proposal to W3.org about modifications in the CSS standard.
Namely, the list-style-type property[1] in CSS has values like "lower-alpha" and "hebrew" and "persian", and I would like to propose a new value "persian-alpha" which would be the alphabetical ordering of lists in Persian (commonly used in books for footnotes). But I don't know where to start.
Please advise! Huji

You can try reporting an issue at w3c's GitHub repository: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts
In the past w3c used Bugzilla. I reported some things there, and I remember that at least one got resolved ( https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=18490 ). That site appears to be still accepting new bugs, but I think that the real activity moved to GitHub.

Thanks Amir, I will post an issue on their GitHub.
Brian, that was an excellent suggestion, and something I did not know! But the issue is it only works in Mozilla browsers (so not Chrome, not Safari, and not IE). Here is a demo: https://jsfiddle.net/a8obup7r/
But at least that is a starting point (and can help demonstrating the desired output for the GitHub issue as well.
