One of the big criticisms of rgba() is that the 'a' part is in a different number format (0-1, vs. 0-255). If 'color()' with rgb and 'a' parts is similarly inconsistent (0%-100%, vs. 0-1), then it isn't an improvement on that front. Commas are reasonable ways to separate groups of values in CSS. So are slashes, when commas won't do. I think having a distinctive separator on either side of the color components would be a good thing, and would improve readability. It would also mean we could allow the author to choose between 0-1 and 0%-100% for each of the r,g,b, and a components. That would be nice. Thus, the author could use all 0-1 for consistency with legacy alpha and between numbers, or use all percentages if they want. -- GitHub Notification of comment by bradkemper Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/266#issuecomment-232051212 using your GitHub account
