I'll note that, in addition to the implementation elegance of a unified spec, there is also an education aspect: many users already find transformations confusing. Different behavior/nomenclature between SVG and CSS will only add to the problem. >From working with both it seems that the 2D transform specifications are already very close to each other in this regard. The only glaring difference right now is SVGMatrix multiply() vs CSSMatrix multiply()/multiplyLeft(), which shouldn't be hard to agree upon. It's great to see this happening. Cheers
