But honestly.. A good > name with a few chars is tough. I still hold that x-* is entirely sweet :) At the risk of irritating Tab again :-) (sorry), I also prefer x-* or, even better, my-* (emphasising it's user-defined), or cp- for Custom Property, with my() or cp() to get them. Tab, I do think it would help if Example 2 didn't have an "if" in it, but was instead more obviously a property, var-font-family: "Helevetica", "Folio", sans; for example, and have the "if(x > 5) this.width = 10;" example later, e.g. merge it with example 3. Maybe it's too late to change CSSVariablesDeclaration to CSSCustomPropertiesDeclaration and no doubt people will get used to whatever is used in any case.
