Created attachment 338986 [details] Test case In order to simulate a motion blur, I'm animating the `stdDeviation` attribute of a `feGaussianBlur`. It works well on Firefox and Chrome, but Safari leaves artifacts behind the element as it moves (see test case attached). It's worth noting promoting the element with `will-change:transform` removes the artifacts, but unfortunately also removes the gaussian blur outside the element.
FWIW it looks like a paint refresh issue. If you resize the browser during the animation, the issue sort of disappears.

It is still reproducible in STP172. Added JSFiddle URL (easier to open and test) based on attached test case.
