I don't have any solutions for managing the cascade, but for dynamic manipulation, it would probably make the most sense to introduce better APIs for manipulating the value of the 'transform' property. As for the cascade, we have similar problems with multiple shadows and backgrounds. Probably they should all be solved in the same way. ~fantasai
