This is nearly what I proposed in my June 4 'compromise', the only
difference being that it don't pass the "the variable name is consistent
between declaration and retreival" assertion (and that you will never be
able to reference a framework-provided property in the future even if we
would like to allow that; also create inconsistencies like in inherit(color)
vs inherit(def-mycolor) vs $color).
I would not say I dislike it but this is clearly missing an huge opportunity
and messing things arounds. Seriously, css variables are properties, let's
consider them as such.
