I've recently come across several sections of the CSS 2.1 spec [1] which describe behavior that is either intentionally undefined or optional (per RFC2119), and have already commented on one of these issues in a previous email [2]. After some testing, and in both examples, the four main browsers (FF, Safari, IE, & Opera) have adopted comparable implementations, and appear to exhibit identical behavior. In these cases, I believe it would be beneficial to standardize this established behavior in order to prevent possible interoperability issues for authors (who have become reliant on it), which may arise from retaining the definitions found in the current specification. [1] Scaling of replaced elements (http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visudet.html#the-width-property ), position and tiling of 'background-image' applied to inline elements (http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/colors.html#background-properties) [2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2009Nov/0324.html
