Firefox is broken in that respect already and no other browser keeps those
consistent either. Another Live DOM Viewer example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<body style=color:#fff>x
<script>w(document.body.style.color)</script>
Firefox _manipulates_ the style attribute and gives rgb(255, 255, 255) for
.style.color.
Opera keeps the style attribute as is and gives #ffffff for .style.color.
Chrome keeps the style attribute as is and gives rgb(255, 255, 255) for
.style.color.
