Hi, One of the most common cases for shape-outside is to shape an <img> based on the alpha channel of its image. To accomplish this, authors do the following: <img src=foo.png alt="Something meaningful"> img { shape-outside: attr(src url); } This construction is pretty awkward. It seems to me like we've optimized for the case where the <img>'s image is different from the image to be used for shaping. We should have a keyword that captures the more common case: <img src=foo.png alt="Something meaningful"> img { shape-outside: bikeshed; } Another advantage of using a new keyword here is that not all images have a corresponding URL that we can reference. For example: <canvas></canvas> canvas { shape-outside: bikeshed; } TedReceived on Tuesday, 13 May 2014 17:37:20 UTC
