Calc() would duplicate the functionality and is even more powerful. And what do you mean with stable if nearly no browser support multiple arguments that get added (does a browser support it at all?)? Just that we have tests for it that no one passes? calc() does lots of things; it's a powerful syntax. That doesn't mean that being able to specify side offsets in a simple way isn't useful. Firefox supports the full bg-position syntax in nightlies as of today. I think Opera does as well. ~TJ
