OpenUI-WHATWG/HTML-CSSWG meeting

CSS UI

• The group began the discussion of proposed properties for the UA stylesheet (Issue #10587: UA stylesheet for appearance:base `select`) with padding:0.25em.
  • The group liked having the value in em, though there wasn’t clear consensus if 0.25em was right.
  • It was stressed that in creating this we should keep in mind good accessibility and user expectations and not be tied to existing behavior.
  • It’s also likely authors will overwrite this, so keeping it lightweight.
  • The styling depends on content which is a new pattern and may require thought to the naming to avoid author confusion.
• The group discussed using currentColor vs system color for the picker in issue #10909 (Colors to use for appearance:base `select`)
  • The group tried to figure out what would be the most expected for developers and the most minimal since they expect it to be overwritten.
  • Right before the call concluded, they also started exploring how to ensure that there is appropriate contrast.
