While reviewing some @supports tests just a few weeks ago I in fact wondered about the same thing. We tend to have long names and they're not always that easy to remember or use. And @supports corresponds to CSS.supports() sure sounds much nicer than supportsCSS(). And it's not like we have too few functions hanging directly off window. Another benefit is that with a CSS top-level object, you can expand that in your debugger and hopefully get some relevant "documentation" right there, instead of looking for functions with "CSS" in them on window. FWIW I really like it. -- Odin Hørthe Omdal (Velmont/odinho) · Core, Opera Software, http://opera.com
