Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color-adjust-1] Forced Colors Mode support for gap decorations (#11857)

(Apologies for having had to miss this meeting, and not seeing the resolutions until now.)

I don't understand the third resolution. Forced Colors Mode has obvious, author-visible effects on the properties it affects. This set of properties needs to be interoperable between browsers; thus, it needs to be specified in some way. We do not currently have a definition anywhere else of what "color properties" are that we can lean on. This means that moving the existing list to a note just... removes necessary normative text.

We do that "list in a note" thing when it's helpful to list out a category that is defined elsewhere (especially when it's *diffused*, like each property defines itself as being in the category or not). But in this case the list *is* the canonical definition.

We can add a note about the listed set being something that will grow over time, and thus possibly not being *complete* at any given time, but the goal *should* be to keep it complete. Regardless, the current list is a required bit of normative definition, so I object to the resolution as it stands.
