It does reduce verbosity but perhaps too much? In some of your examples, given the lack of semi-colons, I feel it would be extremely easy to confuse `!` for a `;`.
At a glance, `.foo{color:red!;background:blue!}` and `.foo{color:red;background:blue;}` look **very** similar and might introduce confusion. Granted, if introduced, over time, authors would get used to it, but I am not sure a single `!` would be the best way to make it easier.
Additionally, `!important` should be used sparingly and as such, should be very explicit and intentional, so having it be a "long" flag makes it stand out, which is a good thing. (though yes I have written `!improtnant` and other variations a million times…)
