Do we need the `@nest` part of the rule? Can we use naked `{}`? Looking at css-syntax, I don't immediately see why not. In other words:
```
:root {
/* #region Colors */
{
--color-foreground: rgb(0 0 0);
--color-background: rgb(255 255 255);
--color-grey-40: rgb(108 112 108);
--color-warning: rgb(242 149 0);
--color-error: rgb(207 0 0);
}
/* ... etc ... */
}
```

To be clear, this issue blocks actually carrying out https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/8738. The more we mess around with the details here, the higher the risk that no change will happen at all.
