Yet more innovation from the Webkit guys

Yesterday, Dave Hyatt announced that the Webkit team have added a new proprietary value for the ‘background-clip’ property- go to my post on CSS3.Info to read more.

Perhaps the next nightly could removed the need for the webkit prefix on the ‘box-sizing’ property, rather than implementing any more proprietary features??

    Dropping the “-webkit-” from “box-sizing” actually broke real-world Web sites, so we had to keep the prefix.

    That sounds, well, plain bizarre. Which sites?

    Sites using “box-sizing” already? Or just plain old legacy sites?

    If it’s the latter, wtf? If it’s the former, then either the sites or Webkit is wrong. No?

    Dave, could you shine some more light on this, please? I’m sure the explanation is not bogus, but it doesn’t really help anybody else understand when Webkit might be able to drop the prefix.
