Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-transforms-2] proposal new transform-style: detached (#4242)

> I sincerely ask for spec authors to please not work on this feature and instead focus on figuring out why the current specs lead to all browsers having broken CSS 3D implementations.

While it's getting a little bit off-topic for this particular issue, I'll respond briefly here to say that working on improving interop of 3D transforms (as [part](https://web.dev/compat2021/#css-transforms) of the Compat 2021 effort) is my primary project right now.  (I'm also now working at Google, on Chrome, which was not the case when I made my earlier comments on this issue.)  That work includes both:
* sorting through issues where browsers are known not to be interoperable, in many cases because the specs are unclear, and trying to drive both consensus on the spec issues and on implementing the results in Chrome.  (I might have spent a little too much time the past few weeks digging into backface-visibility stuff, but I'm hoping to spread my time across some other things as well.)
* fixing transform bugs in Chrome to improve interop in general.  (The first glitches I saw in [css-fps](https://keithclark.co.uk/labs/css-fps/) in Chrome Stable didn't show up for me in Canary -- hopefully due to [some of the fixes](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list?q=ID%3D923766%2C1133666%2C1202695&can=1) I've made recently -- and that work should progress to beta and stable as the version numbers move to those channels.)

I'm happy to discuss further in other forums as appropriate -- Chromium issues as appropriate (feel free to cc: my username at chromium.org), csswg-drafts issues, etc.  (Though I think some of the things you don't like about the current CSS specs are likely things we're stuck with, and probably also things that others would disagree about -- but either way, specific discussion of them is probably best in their own issues.)
