I understand this to be protection from potentially ambiguous URI values and is a carryover from the CSS 1 requirement (not enforced in many places) for all URI values to be in a "url()" sequence. It is in section 6.4 of the December 1996 CSS 1 specification: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS1 I hope this helps. .................
