There's still one or two CSS specs generated from the old CSSWG
preprocessor, but Bikeshed is basically a superset over it, so if you
can parse Bikeshed you'll be fine.

There's also Hixie's custom pipeline for HTML, and the SVGWG processor
which is entirely distinct.

I recommend talking to plinss, as he's already done a lot of the
compat work necessary to parse different types of specs.
