Re: [csswg-drafts] [css3-animations] [css-transitions] animation-delay animatable?

In the motivating case, I did wind up using transitions to do a 
reduced version of the envisioned effect. With respect, the question 
might be applied generally to the CSS animations spec: why not do 
everything with just transitions?

In the motivating case, we wanted to apply some subtle timing effects,
 and control changes in colors as the menus were disclosed - in other 
words, we wanted to do things that animations permit but that 
transitions don't.

But, animations don't allow for the auto-reversing behavior, and 
giving the requirements, we settled on a less interesting behavior in 
order to get the reversal. We might've gone on to use Javascript to 
control the animation instead, but that would've been more complicated
 and at the time we decided it wasn't worth the effort.
