CSS 2 was specified in 1998, and updated to be more realistic in 2005, and even today no browsers follow the standard to the letter - although both Gecko and Webkit admittedly both have a good go at it. Let's not forget that Hixie has seen this first hand maintaining the Acid tests. Having realism on how long standards take to be implemented completely doesn't mean that many of the added features aren't useful in the meantime.
