Could we please allow the following to work in spec?

```css
--v12: "12";
--v0: '"0";
--px: "px";
--deg: "deg";
--dim: var(--px);

--len120px: parse(<dimension> var(--v12) var(--v0) var(--dim));
// Keyword `auto` instead of <dimension> would also be great 
 --num12: parse(<number> var(--v0) var(--v12));
```
