RE: [css3] support for filters

Ø  You can already use any SVG filter in CSS.
Is this part of the CSS3 spec or are you referring to mozilla’s implementation?


Ø  That doesn't seem particularly difficult if you define transitions on CSS filter values to be pointwise transitions over the components of the filter expression.
I agree. It’s just something that needs to be spec’d out.

Also, it will make it harder to implement transitions and animations since the interpolation rules would need to apply to this new XML syntax as well.
