Not to start down the dark path, but might we consider a CSS 3.1? I know
this would be yet another a good intention with which to pave that road, but
it does seem like #rrggbbaa doesn't warrant an entire level to itself. Also,
if it isn't obvious: I am in support of the idea of #rrggbbaa if only for
the sake of completeness (though I know I'd use it), although I wouldn't
want to do another Last Call simply because of it.
