Description
WebKit has an exposed zoom: document value which basically "resets" the zoom from ancestors.
This was implemented in https://github.com/WebKit/Webkit/commit/80334b6c1b121ea0384f19699242d7095d26ca60, but since then Blink must've removed it.
@chrishtr do you know when / why it was removed? I found this useful for scrollbar parts when implementing in Gecko, though I'm not sure there's a more general use case.
