Is vendor prefixing really worse than UA sniffing Paul? Your employer is one of the worst offenders of the latter (not blaming you). Maps, for example, falls back to a very primitive version in Firefox Mobile despite it being perfectly capable of rendering the more advanced site.

My attitude is that if you don't want to test on anything other than Safari Mobile and Android Browser then fine, don't test, but let the site degrade gracefully or not on other browsers.

In practice, graceful degradation requires testing.

I chose the wrong words, my meaning was that they should allow non-WebKit browsers the chance to render the site and if they fail, they fail. Forwarding the browser to another URL because you whitelist only a couple of UAs is a bad bad idea.
