Intent to implement and ship: CSS and SVG filters for canvas 2D

Summary: The "filter" property on CanvasRenderingContext2D allows authors to specify a filter that will get applied during canvas drawing. It accepts the same values as the CSS "filter" property, so CSS filter shorthand functions, references to SVG filters, and chained combinations of the two.

Intent to implement: CSS Containment

This proposed feature would allow authors to annotate when an element and its descendants will not (or should not) affect the rest of the page. The primary intended benefit of such annotations is to allow browsers various layout and rendering optimizations. As currently described

Intent to implement and ship: Unprivilaged WEBGL_debug_renderer_info

Summary: The WEBGL_debug_renderer_info extension allows for querying which driver (and commonly GPU) a WebGL context is running on. Specifically, it allows querying the RENDERER and VENDOR strings of the underlying OpenGL driver. By default, RENDERER and VENDOR queries in WebGL yield safe but usel

Markus, Tobias, and Tantek will update the wiki page with our proposed normative text. Our key use case here is Shumway, where graphics filter implementations in JS code have not (yet) been able to offer acceptable performance characteristics in Canvas2D. We've proven that it's polyfillable in oth

Re: Intent to implement and ship: Unprivilaged WEBGL_debug_renderer_info

I'm concerned this will discourage websites from reporting WebGL issues because it will be easier just to block whatever device has the problem they're running in to. This creates an additional burden on the web developer and essentially creates the user agent problem all over again, but at much wo

Further to what Jeff suggested, I know that we resisted shipping this feature when Google initially proposed it. What has changed since then that we are considering changing our previous stance here? On 2015-06-15 9:18 PM, Jeff Muizelaar wrote: I'm concerned this will discourage websites from
