Provides mixins for CSS3 2D and 3D transforms. See W3C: CSS 2D transforms and See W3C: CSS 3D transforms.
Safari is the only browser that currently supports 3D transforms. Because of that it can be important to control whether a given 2D transform uses the full range of experimental browser prefixes, or only the 3D list. To make that easy, all 2D transforms include an browser-targeting toggle ($only3d) to switch between the two support lists. The toggle defaults to 'false' (2D), and also accepts 'true' (3D). Currently the lists are as follows: 2D: Mozilla, Webkit, Opera, Official 3D: Webkit, Official **(Only Safari Supports 3D perspective)**

@include perspective( perspective )
