Sorry I wasn’t clear. I certainly did not mean to say this is an error. 
On the contrary, this is the part (for comparison) that is well-defined.
We may or may not change that definition later; that’s another story. 
(And since all CSS-defined keywords are ASCII it doesn’t change much.)

The point of my email was that <family-name> (that is, a non-generic 
name) is not as well defined as <generic-family>. It’s said to be 
case-insensitive, but not what kind. The part of css3-values about 
pre-defined keywords applies to <generic-family> but not <family-name>.
