Hi Wilson et al.,

our OS.

We've experimented a bit with testing UA overrides for mobile gmail in the past (see some of the screenshots and comments of <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=668275> -- but it's still a mixed bag.

In our team meeting this week we said we'd like to take a closer look at Gmail (like the recent work Karl has done with GCal in Bug 995140):

<https://wiki.mozilla.org/Compatibility/Mobile/2015-12-work-week#Testing_Google_Properties>

We're definitely getting *closer*, especially with Element.innerText landing in Nightly recently.

But it will require a few things, probably:

1) UA override (at least for initial testing -- Google will serve us the nice version once we say it's OK).
2) layout.css.prefixes.webkit pref set to true
3) ...?
4) Profit

It's step 3 that we're uncertain of -- but if anyone wants to have a jam session with us in Orlando and dive into the issues, that would be awesome. I'm concerned about -webkit-mask usage and needing to reverse engineer -webkit-border-image quirks (See <https://github.com/whatwg/compat/issues/17> for reasons why a simple alias from -webkit-border-image to unprefixed border-image can't work).

later,
