Dear CSS WG, This is a last call comment from the SVG WG on the CSS Namespaces Module, W3C Working Draft 15 February 2008, http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-css3-namespace-20080215/. Please let us know if you have any questions by CC:ing your responses to www-svg@w3.org. > Any @namespace rules must follow all @charset and @import rules and > precede all other non-ignored at-rules and rule sets in a style > sheet Why? What benefit does that provide? What if you want to later define an important @-rule and want it to be 'right after' @charset? I can see why @charset needs to come first, and why its convenient to have @import near the top so the referenced stylesheets can be downloaded as soon as possible. I could also understand a rule that required namespace declarations to occur before use. Preceding all 'non-ignored' @rules seems rather odd, too. It makes a stylesheet move from valid to invalid Suggestion: Simply state that @namespace rules must precede any rules that use namespaces.
