Description Ralf Sternberg CLA 2010-09-09 06:34:45 EDT 
It should be possible to distinguish between both keywords in the client-side appearance code. Currently, they are both rendered as "undefined".

AFAIK inherit is only supported for text-colors, and transparent only for background-colors. So what would happen if background-color gets inherit? 
A) Its still treated as transparent, in which case i see no point in fixing this.
B) It works correctly, which might be some work and has little value imho.
C) Its not allowed, i.e. creates an error?
Comment 2 Tim Buschtoens CLA 2011-01-17 12:20:10 EST 
Invalid values (inherit on background, transparent on foreground) should create an error, the internal handling can be maintained.
