Why can't we define BackgroundImage and BackgroundAlpha in a way that continues to work in the absence of enable-background? I think we can, even with GPU-accelerated rendering. In the worst case you can detect use of BackgroundImage/BackgroundAlpha and automatically infer the equivalent of enable-background for the ancestor elements.
