Fwiw, this isn't possible in general, since there are non-CSS sources of even cascaded data (e.g. HTML presentational hints). That's not even getting into the business of shorthands and what modifying a cascaded shorthand value means. Of course for anything past cascaded values (computed, used, whatever), the concept of "originating rule" just makes no sense period. -Boris
