Page media has been supported for decades. Line numbers aren’t strictly related to page media. It’s hard to complain about the lack of in-depth support for a media that isn’t meant to display “the web”.

I do agree that it could be better. They have been adding print-related features though, at least I remember some in CSS3. CSS Colors Level 4 includes cmyk functions.

I don't think "it isn't meant" is accurate anymore. The browser has become meant for all things including document creation and styling. The @page counter feature although documented isn't supported by any browser from what I can tell at this point.

Have you tried to page a grid? Also, who decides what is web and what isn’t? Is printing barcodes on pre-delineated paper “web”?

Feels like we’re stuck in a “yes, it meant to be a universal platform” / “no, it meant to be a document viewer” loop.
