Although I write CSS on a more-or-less daily basis, I still regularly find myself using an incorrect syntax that seems so natural to me that I simply fail to remember that it is incorrect. Time and again I find myself writing defective CSS such as Foo.bar {margin-top, margin-bottom: 1ex} only to belatedly remember that I am required to either explicitly replicate the value, as in Foo.bar {margin-top: 1ex; margin-bottom: 1ex} or (far worse) use the totally unmemorable shorthand Foo.bar {margin: ...} where I invariably forget the order of the (upto) four values. Given CSS allows me to cluster selectors, as in Foo.bar, Foo.baz {property: value; ...} is there any fundamental reason why it could not be extended to allow /properties/ to be clustered in the same way ?
