The spec says [1]: “” A computed value of other than none results in the creation of a stacking context [CSS21] the same way that CSS opacity [CSS3COLOR] does. If the URI reference is not valid (e.g it points to an object that doesn’t exist or the object is not a <clipPath> element), no clipping is applied. “” It indeed could be clarified if a stacking context is created or not. For mask-image and mask-box-image-source the spec implies that a masking layer is created, but the element not masked - a stacking context is created. I would say a stacking context should be created to match the behavior but think that implementations don’t do that currently. I would like to base the decision on the current implemented behavior.
