Interesting idea by Felipe G on using a new at-rule, @-vendor-unlock, to tell the browser to use it’s experimental implementation of any particular property, rather than using a vendor prefix on that property. Unfortunately at this point, even if you could get all the browsers on board, you’d need to use this and vendor prefixes to get deep support, which makes the problem worse. What we really need is for all browsers to implement auto-updating so eventually “supporting older browsers” is something we can look back and laugh at.
