I wanted to know Ben and everyone else's thoughts on Prefix Free by Lea Verou. I've been using it and it's been pretty useful in avoiding using vendor prefixes in your CSS. It additionally helps with validation issues for people who are actually concerned about that. The only thing I wonder is about its impact on loading, performance, and the fact that it loads each css file twice. Once for its initial read of the file, and then a second time with the dynamically altered vendor prefixed version that your browser renders.

This might be out of the realm for something to include in the framework, but either way, this is a cool thing to share for those who are unfamiliar with it.
