Last I checked, animation frame task was still underdefined. This is what you can read in the WHATWG's fullscreen specification: "Animation frame task is not really defined yet, including relative order within that task, see bug 26440." In my opinion, if the spec is changed to use "animation frame task", it would not change much in the current state of things. Also, I'm not entirely sure why Anne is so loudly complaining about that issue. The issue was not closed or waived but postponed until we can properly hooked to the thing. LC doesn't freeze the specification and we could definitely get this fixed before moving to CR. What I suggested to him on IRC and what I believe is the best approach to reconcile the two worlds (WHATWG live standards and W3C snapshots) is to take the current version of the spec to LC and update the ED to use animation frame task and mark it as a WIP feature. I opened issue 75 last week as a reminder to do that. Arthur, what do you think of that solution? -- Mounir
