It's needed by bug 638540 and very similar to -moz-box-orient.

If one of you think he can handle the review in a few days, could he cancel the other review requests?

Why do we want a new CSS property for this?
If it's only for the progress element, I think -moz-orient is too generic a name. How about -moz-progress-orient? Or how about just reusing -moz-box-orient? Does Webkit have a version of this, and what did they call it?

That was the conclusion of the discussion in the CSS WG mailing list: we (you, Boris and I) had decided to use an HTML attribute and someone pointed that using a CSS property might be better (see the discussion for more details).

This is going to be used for <input type='range'> and <meter>. Webkit doesn't have such a property.
IMO, it would be better to make -moz-box-orient merged into -moz-orient instead of the opposite. Though, both are prefixed so we can see that later, can't we?
That www-style thread didn't really have a conclusion, but I can see that it drifted towards having explicit orientation control using a property.
Is there a reason to not just reuse box-orient here?

If you guys believe we should just use box-orient, I will follow you.
Boris and David, what's your opinion?

That seems fine to me.

To me, box-orient seems a misleading name given that box-* properties are used for the box model and here, it's not really related to it AFAICT. In addition, box-orient accept four values and two of them would have no meaning for the form widgets. And, in the future, we might want to add new values to -moz-orient (like vertical but beginning from the top), which might not work with box-orient.
Those are good points.
I think I'll leave it up to David to decide what to do here :-).

David, if you think we should remove this property and use -moz-box-orient instead, let me know and I will back out this patch.
