E.g. reading out color values and changing them to create a different kind of contrast. Though this might be used for debugging as well, having a consistent format would make things easier her. Color manipulation is also used for animations, though in most scenarios you would not start from some unknown start value. > The only uses of the CSSOM for colors that I've seen around are in fact > debuggers and editors... I see. I don't really see how the CSSOM works well for editing except simple things, and those things would not be hindered much by normalizing <color> values. Editors can always provide an option to see the various ways you can express that <color>. The same goes for debuggers I think. Also, it might be worth noting that Gecko does not preserve e.g. #rrggbb notation at the moment (have not checked hsl() and hsla()). -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/
