== [css-cascade] What is the appropriate syntax for appending to nested layers? ==
The draft Cascade 5 specification allows [nesting cascade layers](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-cascade-5/#nested-layers), and appending styles to nested layers using a dot (`.` period/full-stop/`U+002E`) character:

```css
@layer framework {
 @layer default {
  p { margin-block: 0.75em; }
 }

 @layer theme {
  p { color: #222; }
 }
}

/* These styles will be added to the theme layer inside the framework layer */
@layer framework.theme {
 blockquote { color: rebeccapurple; }
}
```

It might also work to use a space, or some other character in place of the dot.
