That is true, it's definitely complex to implement. I don't think it needs more rendering surfaces in gecko at least though. The example I gave was based on the conceptual idea of preserve-3d, not gecko's render tree, it definitely won't be simple for us either. I think the consistency problems were mainly due to the spec being under defined, rather than just difficult to implement. It seems to me that it might be worth dealing with this implementation pain in order to get opacity working more naturally. - Matt
