Patch
For more background, see http://wiki.csswg.org/spec/css4-ui#caret-property and http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2011Nov/0772.html Comment on attachment 236571 [details] Patch View in context: https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=236571&action=review > Source/WebCore/ChangeLog:9 > + CSS property: -webkit-caret-style, which can have three values: element, -webkit-editable-root, and a color value. I don't think we should introduce a new prefixed value like -webkit-editable-root without suggesting it on www-style first. It appears to me that what -webkit-editable-root does is really "auto". If we were only concerned about Mail & Notes matching TextEdit's native behavior, then we should simply expose a preference instead of exposing a generic CSS property to the Web. This feature needs to be announced on webkit-dev first. |
