His twitter is about a specific issue, namely allowing multiple color  
values in the background syntax.  I have said before I think this is a  
dumb idea, and current implementations (like WebKit) do not allow  
this.  I am still hopeful that allowing multiple colors will be  
scrapped.  It's just a terrible idea.  I believe scrapping it is on  
the table, since that was one of the issues recently raised in that  
list that was sent out a few days ago.
