I've got a bunch of messy notes that I hope will be of some use for that, but
no, so far I have not attempted to create draft spec text to replace the text in
CSS UI 4. To be frank the behavior of '-webkit-appearance' in Chrome/Safari is
so inconsistent and messy that would be a ton of work. I think it would make
most sense to start by trying to get Google to remove some of their infrequently
used values from the Web to reduce the amount of spec work that's needed. It
would also help a great deal to restrict the elements that individual
'-webkit-appearance' values can be applied to, since spec'ing all the weird and
wonderful edge case permutations would be a waste of time.
