Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-values] Are the codepoints in an indentifier stored in escaped form or not? (#12982)

> CSS identifiers, generically denoted by `<ident>`, consist of a sequence of characters conforming to the [`<ident-token>`](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-syntax-3/#typedef-ident-token) grammar.

The character sequence `a`, ` `, `b` doesn't conform to the `<ident-token>` grammar:

<img width="865" height="161" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ab5539ee-43df-4e61-ad9e-abaf2df816c5" />

So CSS Values should instead say that the characters are the value of an `<ident-token>`.
