If we drop that, then I want to rework the value space a bit to explicitly call out what is being restricted, so that we can expand it in the future to allow authors to disallow scrolling as well. I think we can split the existing list into three values, "paint", "style", and "scroll": * "paint" would be #1, #4, and #5 * "style" would be #6 and #7 * "scroll" would be #2 and #3 Thoughts? ~TJ
