With the current malaise that surrounds web standards and web standards support, I'm hesitant to embrace, or even acknowledge these advances, as the timeframe for support in all modern browsers will be lengthy.

I think border-image and multiple backgrounds are two other huge advancements we will all be praising one day, in addition to the two you mentioned. One thing I'm not too crazy about are the CSS animation stuff. I'd rather have two css rules defining two states, then have a slick JavaScript method to initiate the behavior. Something like (in jQuery fashion): $('#progress').transform('startClass', 'endClass'); CSS3 seems like web-designer nirvana sometimes, and Webkit is always a breath of fresh air.
