CSS generated images: Stripes #6910
Description
CSS Images Level 4 module section 4 defines stripes as a generated one-dimensional image type similar to gradients but with flow grid-layout like semantics. AFAIK, current browser support is completely nonexistent, but I think it would be useful. It would be nice to raise awareness about it.

You mean Grid layout, as it supports the
frunit which is currently defined there. Fun fact: it's also not part of Flex layout, even when the unit's functionality suggests it's related to flexible lengths.And a side note: I am currently working on generalizing the definition for it and moving it to CSS Values 5.
The
stripes()function only works in context. Currently it is defined forborder-colorandoutline-color. Though that's still in flux.So I'd suggest to wait until it's clarified where it'll end up and then add two new features for the individual uses.

I see your point @SebastianZ but I'd think the good side of CanIUse is that you can know about it even before it is ready, and join the discussion if you like. I normally don't read through the W3C drafts, and this site is a good summary of what's cooking.
