           Summary: font-family parsing error (with escapes)

Trying to validate

    a { font-family: Times \!important 5, serif;}

yields

    a { font-family: Times !important }

which is wrong. The result according to CSS2 (and CSS21) must be (equivalent):

    a { font-family: "Times !important 5", serif }

Similarly,

    a { font-family: Times \! important 5, serif;}

yields the wrong result.
