I’m not sure what your question is. If you try out the attachment from the bug you'll see what I mean. Essentially, MathML seems to get several overlapping highlights that get darker and darker the more that they overlap via several layers. As such, the content eventually gets washed out by the highlight color. I do not see this behavior for non-MathML content and that leads me to believe we need to something in the rendering objects for MathML. -- --Alex Milowski "The excellence of grammar as a guide is proportional to the paucity of the inflexions, i.e. to the degree of analysis effected by the language considered."

[webkit-dev] Selection Highlight and MathML
I've taken an initial look at this bug: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43818 and I'm curious as to why MathML seems to be treated differently for selection highlights. Is there something a rendering object should do to define the selection highlight? Ideally, we'd just have one highlight for the root MathML element's rendering object (typically, 'math'). -- --Alex Milowski "The excellence of grammar as a guide is proportional to the paucity of the inflexions, i.e. to the degree of analysis effected by the language considered."
