"Is underspecified, inconsistent across browsers and missing critical features"
The Houdini task force consists of engineers from Mozilla, Apple, Opera, Microsoft, HP, Intel and Google working together to expose certain parts of the CSS engine to web developers.
Goals:
Normalize cross-browser bugs
Develop prolyfills and polyfills to use and add new css features

Do you know CSS Custom Properties a.k.a. "CSS Variables"? This is them but with types!
Similar to Web Workers but they are light-weight and short-lived.
write your own layout!

Gives us the ability to drive Animations based on user input, like scrolling, in a standard, non-blocking way!
What is the bounding box when I render string X with font Y at size Z?
Allow authors access to the engine's parser.
