The CSS Working Group just discussed `[css-conditional-5][css-nesting-1] Feature detection for nesting`. <details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary> <fantasai> astearns: We have a feature-detection story, question is how to detect browsers that support nesting vs don't support nesting?<br> <dbaron> astearns: Is that what's remaining in this issue?<br> <fantasai> TabAtkins: unsure... someone else should take this<br> <fantasai> SebastianZ: We need some way to migrate and have fallbacks for old browsers<br> <fantasai> SebastianZ: so the question is how to allow feature-detection, and at the same time do it so that all the browsers don't fail completely<br> <fantasai> SebastianZ: Of course they don't support nesting, but we need some way to handle that case<br> <fantasai> ???: We need more than just selector(&)?<br> <dbaron> s/???/matthieu/<br> <astearns> s/???/matthieu/<br> <fantasai> SebastianZ: selector(&) does work, but it focuses on style rules.
