Any scenario where your background is tailored more directly to the (flow of the) text or content within the box, but you explicitly have padding on it for legibility purposes or something alike. I think the real challenge here is figuring out how to handle the new paradigm of having visually rounded corners / edges to a box, but still a rectangular "real" box that represents that content. Whether one implementation's scenario is more likely or more common than the other is less relevant in my opinion, as that issue persists in either case. It's just an extension of that problem, really. And no I don't really have an idea for a solution on this (yet?) ;-) Faruk
