Usually I'd agree.  But in this case, that won't work. :(

I don't agree :-), since Gecko seems to be slightly behind on many
CSS-related issues lately, but that's another matter.

I'm also not sure how browsers are supposed to handle a non-repeating
animated gif as on-hover background, so I don't know what's "correct"
behavior here.

No CSS-filters (valid or not) are likely to work reliably for very long
when we're dealing with Opera, Gecko, Safari and other good browsers.
Thus, we should not use such filters for anything serious.

You may of course play with filters for something that's not likely to
break anything if those filters fail, so here's my latest play-version:
<http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/styles/target-browser.css>

The sequence itself is as important as each filter in that stylesheet.
You may of course play with that too, to test variations.
It will also include iCab in the Gecko-group, the way I've set it up.

To see the filter in action: look for the 'CSS sledgehammer' image in
the right-side column on this page:
<http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_1_02_01.html>
...it'll catch most - but "seriously"... ;-)
