The hanging-punctuation property in CSS is a useful tool for aligning punctuation marks in blockquotes.
Hanging punctuation is relevant in design software and print design as well. I feel like any half-decent book typesetting will be doing this. Adobe InDesign calls it "Optical Margin Alignment".
I think hanging-punctuation is nice! Just a nice bonus where supported and not a huge deal if it's not.
