text-transform in <input>

[Felipe Gasper]

Does anyone have thoughts on whether the text-transform attribute of input
tags should apply to the displayed text in the browser? It's not
*enclosed*, which I think is what the CSS2 spec refers to, and KHTML
doesn't do this, but Gecko and IE both do.

An example may be found at

If you look at this page in IE or a Gecko-based browser, the input field's
text will be in allcaps, but in KHTML-based browsers (Safari, Konqueror)
it won't be. All three engines render the paragraph in allcaps.

Just looked with Opera 7.23 on Windows - the input is changed to
uppercase but the textarea is not.
