I have considered this and to me it would be a matter of choice, a 
developer would be aware that it could cause awkward adjustments however 
for the rendering engine one would expect it would be no different to 
doing it with javascript, which is a quite simple process, but not 
really satisfactory as I tend to prefer to avoid js as much as possible 
for obvious reasons.
