Additional clarification on this proposal: A "model" Element Never Becomes a Wafer -----------------------------------------------------------
Right now, if you try to act on conventional HTML elements with 3D CSS, those elements become wafers. See here: http://webkit.org/blog/386/3d-transforms/ One of the primary goals of embedding a 3D object (even a static, non-interactive one) is that it can be rotated and translated in CSS without losing its dimensional properties. "globe.xml" will always appear round, at any rotation degree, rather than like a cracker, as a <canvas/> or <img/> would. -Brian MB
