Hi, If you support both screen and print output and for screen you do support an alpha channel and for print you don't. What happens with parsing rgba()/hsla() in a style sheet targeted at both screen and print? I think it should be acceptable to parse such a style sheet only once claiming support for an alpha channel if screen is your primary medium. (Which has the result of being potentially slightly crippled in print.) There's a note in the specification (shouldn't that be normative?) that seems to forbid this and I think it should be reworded to allow this. Maybe: "If RGBA values are not supported by the primary medium of the user agent they should be treated like unrecognized values as per the CSS forward compatibility parsing rules. ..."
