I think I like a non listed variant of 2: treat !important at the end of a  
data- property normally. Any other !important in the data- property causes  
properties into which it is expanded to be invalid.

This is close to 2b, but different in this case for example:

ul {
  data-foo: !important !important;
  data-bar: red;
}
li{
  background-color: data(bar) data(foo);
}
