> That seems rather dodgy. I fully agree, yet in this particular case it probably holds, with possible exception of 2009 Safari, IIRC [1]. And absolutely agree that defensive @supports is better and more robust way to go. Just aimed to ameliorate the, from my point of view wrong and dangerous pattern using `color: transparent` the easiest possible "drop-in" that would encourage keeping the "normal" `color` intact and only introducing `-webkit-text-fill-color: transparent` on top of that. It seemed like a pattern (lazy) develoers would follow more likely [1] https://github.com/mdn/content/issues/2638 https://github.com/mdn/content/issues/2638 Made some research while suggesting to promote better approach and point to caveats in the "authoritative" MDN article and partially succeeded. (Sadly, there are `color: transparent`s used in examples there now, but… at least I've tried.)
