There are three remaining issues on the Variables spec. 1. Animation behavior. Should custom properties animate/transition like normal properties (always being unrecognized, so they flip at 50% progress), or not? François pointed out that allowing them to be animated can produce dependency loops in animations, where the animation property itself uses a variable which it animates over. I'm thinking we should disallow animation/transition of custom properties - they don't transition at all, and they're ignored in @keyframes rules. 2. How should the global keyword initial/inherit/default be treated? Are these more of a language-syntax feature, such that they should be obeyed when specified in custom properties, or are they more like normal values, such that they become the variable's value? It seems like there may be use-cases for either. 3. How does 'all' interact with custom properties? Are they all reset as well? If #2 is decided in favor of treating the keywords as normal variables values, how does that interact with this? ~TJ
