We currently have both "text-align: start" and "text-align: -moz-initial" in the 
UA stylesheets. Both are implemented, but we should use either one or the other, 
not both.

text-align: start
 pros - it's in the *CSS3 Text Module* Working Draft
 cons - it's in the CSS3 Text Module *Working Draft*

text-align: -moz-initial
 pros - it will never be official CSS
 cons - it's not official CSS


Hyatt, I'm assigning to you because you put them both in your patch for bug 
78695.
Actually, glazman proposed "initial" to the CSS WG, and my understanding is that
they thought is was ok.

WONTFIX?
No, we should indeed use one or the other, for cleanliness if nothing else.

I think we should use 'start'.
Since the CSS3 Text Module is now a CR Mozilla is encouraged to follow it
(<http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-text/#alignment-prop>).

If '-moz-initial' is still there, it should be removed.

Thanks Michiel for creating the diff. Without his help I would never be able to
change this one line in quirk.css :-D

Anne, don't flag trivial bugs like this for a release that's already branched.
Unless it's a crash fix or dataloss fix, the trunk is fine.
