But no-one's shipped with "box-shadow" or "border-radius" yet, so we could change the names without breaking actual content. And there are good arguments for 'border-shadow' instead of 'box-shadow'. > But I'm not convinced that these are strong enough reasons to change the > name at this point. I don't mind either way, as long as the Brad's "disable box-shadow when border-image is specified" proposal is not adopted with the name unchanged. Rob -- "He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all." [Isaiah 53:5-6]
