The problem is that this option requires different behavior for requestAnimationFrame and declarative animation events, as far as I can tell. Keeping those in sync with each other is why Firefox has the behavior it does. Note that the difference in efficiency between "never fire" and "fire many seconds apart" is very very low in practice, so I don't think the efficiency argument is particularly strong. Now maybe declarative animation events should _also_ not fire in background tabs. I would be a lot happier with that than in having requestAnimationFrame get out of sync with declarative animations. -Boris
