We can't, since css3 colour is only a CR, and has been for several years. Besides CSS3 colour introduces varying opacity in colours, which is not accounted for in the contrast model.

Tim Boland responded: <quote> From: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/ui.html#system-colors System colors are deprecated in the CSS3 Color Module. </quote> But how do you prevent people from sticking to CSS 2, in which system colours are not deprecated?
