Boolean attributes like [open="true"] and [checked="true"] should be re-written to [open] and [checked].

Because:

  • matching [open="true"] is slower than matching [open] in the style system (according to :emilio, but it makes sense when you think of it)
  • With HTML boolean attributes, [checked=false] behaves like [checked=checked] or [checked=true], so when migrating XUL boolean attributes over to HTML, having the CSS matching on [checked] will be helpful
  • It's also just cleaner and part of the CSS guidelines
