Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-syntax] [css21] url parsing contradiction between 2.1 and Syntax

> For the Syntax issue on the agenda, the differences in url() parsing
 were raised in the past (by dbaron I believe), and accepted. There 
was discussion about updating 2.1 to match, but my conclusion was that
 it would be extraordinarily difficult to do correctly; the error 
recovery isn't something that can be sanely described in terms of a 
grammar-based parsing strategy.

> The tests that gsnedders raises are indeed wrong for Syntax; I 
reviewed them myself a few weeks ago at their request.
