Out-of-bounds keyframe values #1060

Description

@KevinDoughty

There is no useful form of additive animation that does not allow out-of-bounds keyframe values. SMIL has a special carve-out to allow out-of-bounds keyframe values for opacity, as per this comment:

Firefox behavior has recently changed and broken my preferred usage, for opacity:

I am unsure about Safari but Chromium and Firefox behavior now differ. Because of this, Web-Animations and WPT might be under-specified and need clarification or correction.

Other properties like lineHeight, width, and height explicitly disallow out-of-bounds keyframe values and console warn, which is a shame. (I’ve made many proposals which permit useful additive animation but also do not require out-of-bounds keyframe values, via behind-the-scenes conversion. Just sayin’)
