I was a bit concerned about how this overlaps with [additive CSS](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1594)―assuming that happens sometime in the near future. On that one hand, additive CSS seems to provide something similar, i.e. presumably one could write `border-color: hsl(0deg 50% -50%) !add` and we'd define it so it combines with the underlying value by converting as necessary to HSL first (and similarly for Lab etc. too). However, I think getting additive CSS to apply to a color in an arbitrary CSS variable is sufficiently awkward (you'd have to have a separate rule to make the underlying value use the CSS variable) that this proposal makes sense in its own right. This proposal is also a lot more elegant when altering the color component in a more complex value. -- GitHub Notification of comment by birtles Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/3187#issuecomment-426856826 using your GitHub account
