This allows "legacy" highlight annotations to properly render in IE11, which by default does not support blend modes.
Current behavior:
with fix:
Is this reliable?
Normally, no. This workaround sets the opacity of the artifact in question to 0.5, whenever it encounters some kind of blending. If an opacity instruction for the given artifact appears after the blending instruction, the override will be replaced (this happens at an unknown frequency).
However, the code used to generate these annotations is written as follows:
This means we know that our blend instruction will come after the opacity instruction, so this override will work. This will also make some other blending issues more viewable on IE11, but not all, due to the reason described above.
Tests on the way, wanted to get this out ASAP to see how everyone feels.
