Of course '-' is different, you don't do \-webkit\-property\-you\-like

Perhaps I gave a bad example. The obvious example is something like
.a-cat
, matching <div class="a-cat">. Or do you think the amount of sites
doing this is ignorable?
Also, what how do you interpret
:any-link
?
In summary, not requiring space around '-' is just not a workable
approach. Requiring space around '-' could work. It just looks quite
awkward but we have that precedence with calc().
Cheers,
Kenny
