If you don't implement the same spec, bump the version. This is not a complicated idea.

Instead of -webkit-mask-image and -moz-mask-image, have -beta-mask-image and -gamma-mask-image. When IE comes along and wants to play with WebKit's implementation, they implement -beta-mask-image and all the sites that use it get IE support for free.

They did.

-moz and -webkit and -ms and -o.

Unless we're actively working in synchrony, your "beta" won't be my "beta".
