How does hsla() help with hue rotation or (de)saturation? Even with lightening, it depends on what's underneath, which isn't always helpful. For example, lightening text color with a text-shadow is present. Since the shadow isn't clipped under the text, with an HSLA text color it shows through, resulting to a result that's very different than the intended. -- Lea Verou (http://lea.verou.me | @LeaVerou)
