The 'appearance' property is defined as: The ‘appearance’ property is a shorthand for ‘appearance’, ‘color’, ‘font’, and ‘cursor’. It sets ‘appearance’ to the specified value and the other properties to their appropriate system value; ‘normal’ resets ‘appearance’ to ‘normal’ and the others to ‘inherit’. The ‘appearance’ property does not affect the specified or computed values of any other properties. It also adds a whole slew of values to 'font' (explicitly) and to 'color' and 'cursor' (implicitly). Unless there is a strong use case for this I think we should omit this entire section.
