The "rules for parsing a legacy color value" in

specify that CSS2 system colors should be accepted, and that they
should be converted to a simple color.
...
What was the motivation for adding support for CSS2 system colors
IE compat.
(which I would note are deprecated in css3-color) to legacy HTML
color values? What implementations support them,
I think WebKit and IE.
and do they respond to dynamic changes properly?
I don't know.
It appears that Opera and Gecko don't support system colors. I
wouldn't mind not supporting them, but it could be interesting to
research how many pages it affects.
Interesting to know!
I'm kinda surprised that there is no support for floating point colors
though.
Althought I guess that "rgb(x%, x%, x%) An RGB percentage value (e.g.
rgb(100%,0%,0%))"
is as close as you get to that... Does percentage rgb color support
things like 85.41% though?
I hope so as only rgb(x%, x%, x%) is tentatively gamut independent.
