I think that @page could contain variables. Many @-rules like @font-face or @counter-style contain *descriptors*. Descriptors have the same "name: value;" syntax as properties, but that’s it. They can not have !important and are not part of the cascade. @page however contains real properties, as do margin rules inside @page. In fact, in recent css3-page drafts, @page inherits from the root element and margin boxes inherit from @page. In their current form, CSS variables can be used in any property values but not in descriptors. The spec probably should mention that. -- Simon Sapin
