There have been many request for non-inherited custom properties. However, 
it’s impossible to specify them in the file in a good way, which makes them 
basicly impossible.

My proposed solution (don’t necessarily assume Brian and Chris support on 
this) would be a ‘use-declared()’ function that only takes in consideration 
the specified value of the referenced property if it was explicitely defined 
on the element (so, not if its initial state or inherited value are in use).
