Aha! I couldn't find it before because the CSS3 Roadmap document [1]
specifies the content module as being an entity on its own. Will it
eventually have it's own module, or is it destined to stay in the UI Draft?
If so, I think the roadmap needs a bit of updating!

How will you be able to assert that it is legal to put attr(X) into the
<uri> property value? Won't that mean a radical re-definition of the <uri>
property value: or will it be a local pv model for "content" only?
It's great that this will be allowed, BTW (and I noticed you authored the
document!).

I'm actually subscribed on two email addresses (one is a bit off sometimes),
so I got a total of ten letters! Then I realized they were all the same...
