The only reason is backwards-compatibility with existing browsers.
Summary: add a new timeref attribute (of type idref) to and
elements that can be used to reference the id of a local to
document element which is then used as the datetime value of

Like Ian said before, this is fine as soon as someone defines
precisely what pixels are
Even Firefox's implementation is inconsistent.
drawShape uses the "infinite transparent black bitmap" but drawImage does
not.
I believe even many at Mozilla would like Firefox to switch to the
Chrome/Safari method because it's more easily GPU accelerated.
In that direction it would be nice if 2

People have a very strong feeling about Firefox. This is beautiful, but not
good to it. Firefox is now, over the Windows 7 and Mac, the slowest browser.
Just pick some JavaScripts and test. XUL is the most hard way for builting
an extension and Firefox eats CPU when we run any game built using HTML
