In practice, it *is* correct 99+% of the time, and when it's not, *the distinction doesn't matter*. As far as the author is concerned, the user and UA style sheets are part of the same thing - "the styles underneath me". We're never going to provide a value to authors that *does* distinguish between user and UA (it would be user-hostile), so it doesn't actually matter that this is technically pointing to the wrong place in the origin hierarchy. ~TJ
