I plan to use the existing filter code. It's nicely neutral of SVG. This would 
mean that CSS_FILTERS does require FILTERS, but I could also change the #ifs to 
use ||. 

BTW - the Filter Effects specification (ENABLE_CSS_FILTERS) does support "What 
was previously known as SVG Filters" (ENABLE_FILTERS), so there is a dependency.

When hardware acceleration comes we'll obviously begin diverging. As you 
mentioned elsewhere, buried in the depths of SVN is a Core Image-based version.

That's right. This new specification is mostly adding some new syntax and 
exposing filters to HTML/CSS.
