Hi,

I was asked on Twitter[1] why the initial value of ‘mask-size’ is ‘border-box’ instead of ‘auto’[2]. (The initial value of 'background-size’ is ‘auto’[3].)

'border-box’ is not a valid keyword for this property. This is an oversight and I suggest changing the initial value to ‘auto’.

Greetings,
Dirk
