Comment:

 Came back to this one going through tickets with a `close` suggestion and
 took another look.

 The `-webkit-` prefix no longer seems to be required for any of the
 browser versions currently supported by Core. After some testing, it seems
 that the prefix is simply ignored and the property is interpreted as
 `appearance`.

 There are a fair number of occurrences in bundled themes. I don't feel
 strongly about keeping these, but there could be other considerations to
 be had in themes vs. Core admin CSS. We also will not be able to change
 the occurrences found in third party libraries included within the code
 base (`tinymce` and `medialement` to name a few).

 @peterwilsoncc Can you think of any reason why this should not be changed?
