I wouldn't worry that much about the syntax, the models tend to be the most
troublesome parts in CSS even though there still are outstanding syntax issues on CSS
2.1 i believe.
Just to clarify your point above, how does the following cascade:
default style:
body {background-image: url(img1), url(img2); background-repeat: repeat-x, repeat-y}
author style:
body {background-repeat: no-repeat}
