Yes i obviously missread the rec (CSS 2.1 even introduced changes to clarify this) and i worded the above poorly. However, i still think that what Mozilla and IE does currently makes more technical sense (for both authors and UAs) than what the rec states you should do. It would IMHO be a good idea for the WG to consider changing this in CSS 2.1, or perhaps in a future errata to CSS 2.1 if that works better process-wise, even if it is a very minor issue. /Staffan
