Regarding spread radius...
Pick your poison...
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-text/#text-shadow
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-text/#text-shadow
Both of them say...
"<shadow> is the same as defined for the ‘box-shadow’ property except that the ‘inset’ keyword is not allowed"
...so spread radius is already allowed because...
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-background/#the-box-shadow
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-background/#the-box-shadow
<shadow> = inset? && [ <length>{2,4} && <color>? ]
•The third length is a blur radius. Negative values are not allowed. If the blur value is zero, the shadow's edge is sharp. Otherwise, the larger the value, the more the shadow's edge is blurred. See below.
Cheers,
