[filter-effects] filter different components of an element

Hi,

I added an issue on the behalf of the CSS WG to investigate in filtering individual components of an element such as border, background or content. 

ISSUE6 [1]

""
The CSS WG wants to look into how to apply the filter to certain parts of an object (background, border) instead of just the whole group with descendants.
""

With the CSS filter() image function I see a lot of the use cases already addressed. You can filter background-image, border-image-source, mask-image, mask-image-source, list-item-image and apply the filter property on the content itself. There are still things you can not do with the filter property nor with the filter() function, but I didn't hear any request from authors so far.

I would be in favor for removing this issue or (if people feel strongly about it) at least delay it to the next level of the spec.

Any opinions?

Greetings,
Dirk
