I don't like the fact that !required *really* means
!required-in-this-thing. Note that this is different from
!required-in-this-rule and !required-in-this-group. Many real world
CSS authors do learn by example and the connection is far from clear.

The opt-in / opt-out issue is interesting, though. Perhaps it's just 
that I find the suggested names as misleading.
