Re: [csswg-drafts] Should we spec required prefixes directly in the relevant specs?

I don't really like that resolution, but I guess I can live with it. 
However, I have a few questions about what it means practically:

1) Does that mean we should remove the prefixes from our specs? 
-webkit-user-select was removed from the compat spec once it was added
 to ours, as that is (as far as I understand) the way the compat spec 
deals with things that have graduated into their main spec

2) What about other non standard names that don't have a prefix? The 
standard `overflow-wrap` property has a `word-wrap` initially 
proprietary name, which is now supported by multiple browsers. Except 
for the fact that the name doesn't include the word webkit, the 
situation is pretty much the same. Should we keep it in our spec, or 
move it to the compat spec?

3) The compat spec does not specify how aliasing works, it just says 
you need to alias. Our specs say: “must treat as a shorthand” for 
`word-wrap`, and “up to the UA, but should consider doing it as a 
shorthand” for `-webkit-user-select`. Do we preserve that information?
 Where?
