This test:
http://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/013/css3-selectors-0603-empty.html
tries to test substring-matching attribute selectors ~=, |=, ^=, *=, $=
(Selectors section 6.3[1]) with empty values, such as p[title^=""].
It assumes that such selectors are valid (i.e., not ignored) but match
nothing. I think that is what we decided last week[2]. I'm not sure if
we decided anything for |=, but it seems consistent to treat it the
same way.
This test:
http://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/013/t050801-empty-attr-01.html
is the same, except that it only tests ~= and |=, and is thus suitable
for CSS level 2, section 5.8.1[3].
