There are a few links that indicate that the new Netscape/Mozilla will
support it properly. I don't know if it is just hot air, just thought I'd
post the press releases etc. since they're relevant to CSS et al.
They're all related to the new rendering engine for Netscape/Mozilla. Since
this is being developed as entirely opensource, it has a higher likelyhood
of complying with the W3C's standards.
