== [css-inherit] New rule to make non-inherited properties inheritable ==
I had a situation where child elements had to inherit multiple non-inherited properties from a parent. I used the standard `inherit` keyword, but it led to code repetition and sparked an idea for a more implicit approach.

What if inheriting properties explicitly from a parent

```css
.parent {
  border-radius: 50%;
}

.child {
  border-radius: inherit;
}
```

could become implicit with an `!inherit` rule?

```css
.parent {
  border-radius: 50% !inherit;
}
```
