Step 2, 4, and 6 are already handled in CSS3 Values & Units: <http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-values/#component-types> and <http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-values/#common-keywords>. It would probably be useful to do a thorough search for anything that would run afoul of step 5, but luckily they're pretty rare. (It only happens when a property accepts an arbitrary user-defined keyword.) ~TJ
