ewilligers has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:
== [css-values] [css-grid] Serialization of custom identifiers ==
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-grid/#propdef-grid-template-areas
> Note: These rules can produce cell names that do not match the <ident> syntax, such as "1st 2nd 3rd", which requires escaping when referencing those areas by name in other properties, like grid-row: \31st; to reference the area named 1st.
The following parsing tests show variation between browsers in how custom identifiers are serialized:
```
test_valid_value("grid-column-end", "\\31st", "\\31 st"); // passes in Blink, Firefox
test_valid_value("grid-column-end", "\\31st", "1st"); // passes in Edge
test_valid_value("grid-column-end", "\\31st", '"1st"'); // passes in WebKit
```
None of these serializations are accepted by any of the main browsers as a property value: none of the browsers round-trip. If we would like to round trip, we would need to serialize as `"\\31st"`.
