Description Frédéric Wang (:fredw) 2019-05-02 02:44:02 PDT
Some attributes were deprecated in MathML3 and have been removed from MathML Core: https://github.com/mathml-refresh/mathml/issues/5#issuecomment-475506856

These might have been implemented in WebKit: fontfamily, fontweight, fontstyle, fontsize, color, background, mode

As I said in private, I'm not really a fan of all these nested if else and addPropertyToPresentationAttributeStyle calls. SVGElement does thing better. But anyway, this is a separate issue that can be handled later.

It's a pity we have to modified upstream WPT tests, but that's how WebKit does it currently. For the record, I believe Mozilla and Chromium have separate per-test or per-directory configuration files to enable experimental features.

I really don't think we should be removing the support for these attributes even if core MathML is enabled.
We probably should have a runtime flag separately from coreMathMLEnabled to just disable deprecated attributes,
which is probably never enabled in our (Apple) port.

MathMLCore is currently only used for our (Igalia) ports and we really do want to disable these attributes when MathML Core is enabled and when we run MathML WPT tests.

In Mozilla, we chose to introduce one runtime flag / use counter per MathML feature. However introducing runtime flag is a pain in WebKit (especially for WK1 and if we want to expose them in non-macOS UIs), there is no concept of use counter to measure usage statistics and nobody else in WebKit seemed to have interest in removing MathML features from their ports. So it seems easier for us to just go with one flag for now... If someone else really wants to go with multiple flags, they should introduce one per feature and make the MathMLCore one force all of them to be enabled.
