I agree here - if CSS wants to follow in the DOM spec's footsteps and have
something like, say:
@supports(td.dataRow.even)) {
/* CSS rules */
}
This would be easy for browsers to implement and wouldn't shift focus away from
coding to the standards rather than the browser implementations thereof. I'm all
for something like that.
