CSS_DIMENSION is for unknown dimension. In CSS2, all lengths, angles, times and frequencies are dimensions. The DIMENSION token is part of the CSS2 grammar: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/syndata.html#tokenization setProperty("font-size", "10m", "") will create a dimension even if you won't be able to use it in a CSS2 engine.
