           Summary: align attribute should not do anything on most
                    elements
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: CSS
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ayg at aryeh.name

Test case:

data:text/html,<!doctype html>
<quasit style="display:block" align=right>Test</quasit>

In IE9 and Firefox 8.0a2, the word "Test" is left-aligned.  In Chrome 15 dev and Opera 11.50, it's right-aligned.  The HTML specification says that align should only work on certain elements, like IE/Gecko:

I don't know what the exact list should be, though.  I didn't test what elements IE/Gecko respect it on.
