It is very easy to propose but not so many people are willing to really participate. But you can count on me! I agree with Tab Atkins. If its too complicated to be added in CSS3 specifications, I think it should be added in CSS4. The only thing that worries me is that CSS4 looks very far away in time to be released. But in the other hand, as this feature is quite simple in implementation and definition, maybe browsers won't delay so much in adding it, don't you think? This is how Google defines the #rrggbbaa annotation: http://code.google.com/apis/chart/docs/chart_params.html#gcharts_rgb and this is how is defined in 3DMLW: http://www.3dmlw.com/?id=10976 Most of the other #rrggbbaa definitions I found are much more simpler... something like: "... #RRGGBBAA in which AA represents the alpha channel, being 00 totally transparent and FF totally opaque." In the case of css-color module, I think it should be added under "4.2.2 RGBA color values" in a similar way as it is introduced in the "4.2.1 RGB color values" section. Introducing #RRGGBBAA should not break anything in its implementation as it will still valid for older versions: "Note. If RGBA values are not supported by a user agent, they should be treated like unrecognized values per the CSS forward compatibility parsing rules. RGBA values must not be treated as simply an RGB value with the opacity ignored. " Lepe
