In chromium we would like the ability to monitor and, when appropriate,
disable vendor-prefixed non-standard CSS properties.  I think it's a bad
idea to assume that by default all ports will want to expose non-standard
API to the web platform without at least considering the situation and
having a plan to remove at least the prefixed version.  Please add a flag
and, for bonus points, hook up FeatureObserver so we can monitor usage of
this property.
