The CSS3 Fonts spec does not currently include 'font-stretch' property
values in the 'font' shorthand. I think it can without complicating
what is already some relatively tricky parsing code needed for the
'font' shorthand.
Current 'font' shorthand syntax:
font : [ [ <font-style> || <font-variant-css21> || <font-weight> ]?
<font-size> [ / <line-height> ]? <font-family> ]
| caption | icon | menu | message-box | small-caption | status-bar
With 'font-stretch' added:
font : [ [ <font-style> || <font-variant-css21>
|| <font-weight> || <font-stretch> ]?
<font-size> [ / <line-height> ]? <font-family> ]
| caption | icon | menu | message-box | small-caption | status-bar
Since all the non-normal values of 'font-stretch' don't overlap with
the property values for any of the values for 'font-weight', 'font-style',
'font-variant' or 'font-size', it's relatively simple to add this addition
to CSS parsing code.
Thoughts, comments?

John Daggett
