I once proposed to enable authors to redefine color keywords – and was told this was a bad idea. I believe this would be worse because it takes away power from users and hands it to authors. Although most originate in the Unix/Linux/X11 world, the (non-System) color keywords have universal definitions across browsers, both in theory and practice, whereas generic font family keywords, at least in theory, depend on OS and browser settings or defaults – in practice, it’s not always possible for users to choose different typefaces, or they can just do so indirectly via themes. Furthermore, is this proposal only about classic generic font keywords or also about those inside `generic()`? -- GitHub Notification of comment by Crissov Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/10452#issuecomment-2171414746 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
