Note the "and at least one value is not a keyword". Two keywords
together are allowed in either order, as long as one can be
interpreted as horizontal and the other can be interpreted as
vertical. ('center' can be interpreted as either.)
The grammar also allows this in the '&&' (our special notation for
both required, but in either order) that's in the third part of the
top-level |.
