The CSS WG has published an updated Working Draft of the CSS Cascading and Inheritance Module Level 5: https://www.w3.org/TR/css-cascade-5/ This CSS module describes how to collate style rules and assign values by way of cascading and inheritance. Level 5 adds “layers” to the cascade, along with a syntax for defining and sorting those layers. In the same way that cascade origins provide a balance of power between user and author styles, cascade layers provide a structured way to organize and balance concerns within a single origin – such as element defaults, third-party libraries, themes, components, and overrides. The changes have been made since the previous Working Draft: * Unlayered styles now have the lowest priority in normal origins, rather than the highest. There remain a couple issues open on bikeshedding the exact syntax: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5791 (nested layer name syntax) https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5840 (call them "layers" or...?) Please review the draft, and send any comments to this mailing list, <www-style@w3.org>, prefixed with [css-cascade-5] (as I did on this message) or (preferably) file them in the GitHub repository at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues For the CSS WG, -Miriam
