I think "here are some legacy proprietary properties that you >can support if you want for increase web compat" is enough. Isn't that the same with any property? If you don't mind some incompatibly, anything can be skipped. But here, all existing UAs have found they needed to implement (and nobody likes to do this, so the decision is typically not taken lightly). >'-webkit-gradient' had graceful fallback.

It does break. Quite a few of these same pages have white text on that gradient background. Remove the background, and you get white on white. And it's not just "some really old pages". The mobile web is full of WebKit only sites. I don't have data at hand anymore, but last I checked I believe this was far from a marginal problem. ---- - Florian Rivoal Sent from my phone.
