Definitely not. Why would they let web devs render outside of the browser window? That's a recipe for disaster.

  There needs to be some middle ground. I'd trade off just being able to set just the background color and font and keep these native-like features

    If that's all your changing, then why can't you make do with the system default?

    The following works for me in Chrome, and doesn't prevent the menu from going outside of the viewport: select, option { background: red; font-family: 'comic sans ms'; }

      Yeah, it only works in Chrome

    I think that you can compose arbitrary images that way using an image-like font (using various Unicode chars and assigning to each a small tile of the full image) Actually I am now curious of how much detail/size/colours/animations you can fit in a single letter.
