Apologies for cross posting, but: could anybody shed some light as to why system colors have been deprecated in the CSS 3 color module? http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/CR-css3-color-20030514/#css-system In my recent testing on Windows browsers, I found them to be fairly well supported and would posit that they can have quite a valuable role to play in creating accessible style sheets that match the user's set colour scheme / preferences (e.g. if a user has set their Windows environment to High Contrast, a web page can be styled to follow that preference).
