Can we add semantics for a column gap rule to the new spec?

FYI, There are a couple work arounds like using a background image and also
this method described on the XEP support list:
http://services.renderx.com/lists/xep-support/2202.html

CSS3 Multi-Column has the following defined, so it would be convenient to u=
se
the same attribute names. (http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-multicol/)
  4. Column gaps and rules
    * 4.1. =E2=80=98column-gap=E2=80=99
    * 4.2. =E2=80=98column-rule-color=E2=80=99
    * 4.3. =E2=80=98column-rule-style=E2=80=99
    * 4.4. =E2=80=98column-rule-width=E2=80=99
    * 4.5. =E2=80=98column-rule=E2=80=99=20

If we wanted to be fancier, maybe we could consider the ability to use an
image.  Similar to border-image
(http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-css3-border-20021107/#the-border-image)

Thanks for considering this enhancement.  Please let me know if there is
anything I can do to help.

Sincerely,
John Cavalieri
