style:text-position

I am working on the IAccessible2 text
attributes spec and notice that style:text-position is almost but not quite
like CSS2's vertical-align.  Is there any reason to not use the CSS2
spec instead of inventing something new?

The reason I ask is because IA2 text
attributes would be used to provide access to text attributes in both ODF
and browser based implementations and it would be more efficient if a single
CSS2 spec could be used for both kinds of apps.
