--- Comment #4 from Robin Whittleton <robin at reala.net> ---
Not as far as I understand it. Pre bug #147405, Safari would not scale radios/checkboxes outside of the two default sizes (3 if on a non-retina screen as it treats the @2x asset as a third larger size). That bug changes the behavior such that regardless of zoom level radios / checkboxes remain at their ‘natural’ size (i.e. consistent with the size of the text).

This bug is an enhancement request to allow web developers to set a specific size for radios/checkboxes using CSS. On other platforms this is generally the default behaviour these days. For example, Edge on Windows 10 or Safari on iOS:

The only browser to allow this behaviour on OS X is Firefox. Its implementation causes the radios/checkboxes to go slightly fuzzy at non-default sizes, something that could be amended a bit by scaling the @2x asset I guess. Either way, a little blurring is a small price to pay for the increased usability. If this issue can be fixed without blurring then even better.
