Too late. I got annoyed by the lack of support for HWB, LCH and LAB in Chrome/Firefox. Safari now supports them for CSS, but has not yet made the effort to support them in the canvas element. I wanted users of my JS canvas library to be able to fill and stroke things using any valid CSS color string ... so I've been doing the work to make it happen over the holidays.
It's been worth the effort. Red > Blue gradients look so, so much better when using LAB color space values, compared to what you normally get using RGB.
