If you want to include ‘auto’, we need to define what it means and what it computes to. > > If you want to include ‘all’, I’d like to know what it means in chrome before standardising something else. It doesn’t seem to do anything other than text, but I might be missing something. I don't think it does anything in Chrome. Like I said, I think we recognize it but don't actually implement it. Don't worry about it - you have two interoperable implementations. > Same with ‘element’. Firefox has it, but it doesn’t seem to do anything obvious. Hm, yeah, I thought FF actually implemented it. Looks like they just recognize it but don't do anything. Boooooo. > Finally, are we sure this is really a good idea? Yes, it's a useful property. "none" is great for doing manual drag-and-drop or the like. "all" is useful for implementing "atomic" elements that should only be selected whole. ~TJ
