the way to ask would be to file a bug - as you have seen, that has
already been done.  but just because people are asking, doesn't mean that
anyone will do it.  mozilla.org project doesn't have people that work on
implementing stuff in the code - the coding is done by people that
volunteer to do it (including a lot that Netscape/AOL staff do), but they
will only implement what they want to implement.  if you can find someone
else that wants to code it, that would be great... otherwise it'll sit
there until somebody volunteers...

indeed.

I imagine that will probably stay there. There are reasons for removing
it from CSS2(.1), but there's no reason to remove it from the future CSS3
standard.  However, if you wait for CSS3 to be finalised, and the
features to be implemented by browsers just to be compliant with CSS3,
that will take a while.  Mozilla and Opera are leading the way, and they
are not even completely covering CSS2 yet...
