Generaly speaking, yes, this is intended: propagation of backgrounds (or anything) from the body element is considered a legacy mistake, and authors should be encouraged to set their properties on the `:root`, not the body element. If they do, setting `image-animation` on the `:root` too will work without problems. We could also make it propagation of `image-animation` from the body work too, but the general policy of the CSS working group has been to avoid adding new property propagation from the body, in order to avoid encouraging authors to continue doing it. If you think that should be reconsidered for this property, could you open a new issue about this? -- GitHub Notification of comment by frivoal Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/13435#issuecomment-4190763545 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
