[cssom][css-transforms] Conflicting on resolved value of various properties

[upsuper]

CSSOM has a list of properties which should have their resolved value be their used value rather than computed value. That list doesn't include perspective-origin. However, CSS Transforms spec says the resolved value of perspective-origin should be used value.

I guess one of them should be changed to match the other.

This also applies to transform-origin.

We should probably just update the CSSOM spec to say that its list is limited to CSS2 properties, and all other properties are as specified by their respective modules (defaulting to computed value).

[dbaron]

It probably needs to be a slightly larger set than CSS2, representing "modules predating CSSOM". (Much like transforms does for the Animation type...)

Reopening because I don't think this was correctly handled. In particular, the CSSOM specifies, for properties that have resolved value as used value, certain rules for e.g. handling display: none. The specs that reference the new term “resolved value special case property” do not contain these caveats.

I think “resolved value special case property” is overly-general. It seems to me that the properties that do not resolve to the computed value follow one of the existing patterns in the CSSOM, and therefore we should have these properties specifically reference those rules, not make up their own rules, which are intended to be the same as what's in CSSOM but aren't.
