997- There are no known privacy issues introduced by these features.
997+ * The timing of paint callbacks can be used as a high-bandwidth channel for detecting "visited" state for links.
998+ (<a href="https://github.com/w3c/css-houdini-drafts/issues/791">details</a> )
999+ This is not a fundamentally new privacy leak,
1000+ as visited state leaks from many interactions,
1001+ but absent any further mitigations,
1002+ this is a particularly high-bandwidth channel of the information.
1003+
1004+ No official mitigations are planned at this time,
1005+ as this privacy leak needs to be addressed more directly
1006+ to fix all such channels.
