± Doh :) I think we're getting way ahead of ourselves though...
The current IE behavior is nice but the fact it doesn't support inheritance nor correct default values can be annoying. I like the idea of being able to tell the browser how to handle the property; we could probably even go as far as giving the polyfilled property a type so the browser could animate it using smooth transitions {and ignore invalid declarations}.
