This doesn't solve the problem that vendor prefixes were originally designed to solve, which is that the draft status of the properties is such that the group is not yet ready to commit to being backwards compatible with content using those properties. If the Web were full of unprefixed uses of the properties, implementations would have to maintain compatibility with the syntax and behavior. -David -- 𝄞 L.
