FYI, The ltr and rtl keywords have now been dropped from CSS3 images due to a design issue. The feature has been deferred to Level 4 (but may wind up with a different syntax than originally suggested). The design issue (see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2012Mar/0243 and replies in "Next in thread" chain) is that it is not clear that there is a use case for specifying different modes (non-flipping, ltr, rtl) for different images in the fallback chain. That the syntax allows this may indicate that it is suboptimal.

Nevertheless, it would still be useful if browsers prototype this feature in the current syntax (suitably prefixed as necessary).
