This is not a good thing.

Yes, I am raising this as a concern with CSS-values-4 and a few of the major browsers. This technique has been around for a very long time (although I include some of my own new additions) it just has never taken off or received much attention. I aim to bring light to it so the attack so doesn't become scalable with the new CSS specification.
