The data:text/css,test{background:red}test#test{background:lime} is
a URI reference to the "test{background:lime}" fragment of the style
sheet. I sure hope there is no WHATWG proposal that changes that as
that would be incompatible with a broad range of URI and RFC 2397
implementations.

Well, they don't really help demonstrate interoperable implementation of
xml:id in CSS implementations; even if all tests were correct, they have
too poor coverage to serve as argument for requiring xml:id support in
CSS 2.1. Some of the tests might of course be useful for other purposes.
