Thanks!

Do you think anything needs to be specified though? Relative font units
are defined [1] to 'refer to the computed font metrics of the element
on which they are used' (or its parent when used in font-size). To the
extent animations are defined to affect computed property values and all
implementations appear to interpret both facts in a compatible manner I
do not think anything needs to be explicitly stated. If you think otherwise,
a proposal is welcome.
