Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-borders-4] Allow declaring `box-shadow-offset` with a single value (#8568)

I think allowing a single value in `box-shadow-offset` is a nice enhancement and I'd be in support.
I don't think the benefit is worth the drawbacks of moving to a different slash-based syntax however, and having to support both forever. I'm also unconvinced about the prevalence of use cases with 45deg offsets, though we can easily find out about that via an HTTPArchive query.

Furthermore, slashes are problematic, because there is no established precedence of operators (spaces, commas, slashes) across CSS, different properties use different precedences. E.g. in `background` slashes have a higher precedence than commas, whereas in `font` commas have a lower precedence than slashes.
