    I know you're asking Richard, but I'll step in and ask why it 
costs more than a little to do, in effect, this:

    if (property == '-moz-box-shadow' || property == 'box-shadow') boxShadow();

As it is, your choice to drop prefixed-property support is hostile to 
authors, and I'm having extreme difficulty understanding why you 
think it's a good idea to take that path.
