The CSS Working Group does not provide functionality to authors, browser vendors and other CSS implementers do. If they decide that some feature is not going to be offered to authors because it encourages authors to write content that performs poorly in their applications, then there is no point in helping them to offer the feature interoperably through new specifications, test suites, and so on. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
