I agree it would be useful functionality.

It is not implemented in any modern browser AFAIK either.

However, the syntax (thus capability) *is* in a draft specification:

 http://www.w3.org/TR/css-style-attr

Which could benefit by being updated to include the example you gave, and
perhaps adding that construct to the "Pseudo-rules 'style' attribute
profile":
