At https://developer.mozilla.org/En/CSS/Box-sizing it says:
"It is possible to use this property to emulate the behavior of
browsers that do not correctly support the CSS box model
specification."
This is quite a pejorative statement and it should be corrected.
Actually, inventing content-width as the determinate value for the
width property was a bad change in mind of the W3C. In fact, it was
the border-box layout that determined the calculation of the width
property right from the beginning in CSS1. CSS3 now just corrects a
CSS2 design flaw.
Many designers will welcome the return of the border-box layout. Now
finally it is possible again to assign both, a padding, a border AND
a width of 100% to correctly display full width backgrounds without
a need to perform try & error kind of width calculations.
