The prefixed margin/padding/border support in Gecko doesn't match
the spec, though.  It uses my initial proposal of expanding to a set
of longhands, rather than what the group eventually adopted, which
involved relying on preserving order within CSS declarations (which
we haven't implemented).  I would want to fix this [1] (which
involves a good bit of work) before expanding it (to offsets, etc.).
