Follow the current text color

<a class="underline text-decoration:currentColor fg:blue-60">  Current color underline</a>

Hide decoration color

Use text-decoration:transparent when spacing or thickness should remain but the decoration should not be visible.

<a class="underline text-decoration:transparent">  Invisible underline</a>

Apply conditionally

Apply styles based on different states using selectors and conditional queries.
