Re: [csswg-drafts] [mediaqueries] Media Feature: prefers-reduced-motion

Allows certain views to remove or tone down animations. Platform 
preference is shipping on iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS. 

For example:
- launching an app on iOS changes to a subtle dissolve animation 
rather than a full-screen zoom.
- switching Spaces or launching Exposé on macOS Sierra

Customers regularly mention to us that common web site patterns (e.g. 
horizontal carousels or scroll-jacking animations) cause vestibular 
issues such as dizziness or vertigo. Web developers ought to be able 
to achieve a similar solution that app developers can achieve 
natively.
