Alternately, revert the currentColor change (which I'm not sure is
implemented by anyone yet?) and use a new keyword for "inherit as
as a use-color-property keyword".
Which basically means we need two keyword names:
a) compute to the current color value and inherit as that color
b) inherit as a keyword that references the color value on
whatever element it's on
One of these keywords needs to be currentColor. Probably it doesn't
matter which one.
