I'd personally prefer to run with the from/to syntax, that's nicer to read. What's the standard say? (I can't remember what the standard says)

I also think it would be better to not support it because there is a certain nicety around keeping things clean - and being less strict does tend to make it less clean.

Thanks - except, the design elements were already floating about in the wild. I wanted to use the new HTML5 <progress> tag, but it wouldn't animate.. So I'm using two div's instead...

I agree it's nicer to read, but from and to are just 'aliases' to 0% and 100%.
The reality is, you can define more keyframes, e.g. at 0%, 25%, 57.5%, 100%... So it's not like I can prevent themers from using numbers.

Strictness would say, "only allow selectors starting with numbers when inside a @-keyframes definition"...
But it'd either make it slower to parse, or just impossible. (I'm a bit rusty when it comes to dealing with selector parsing. WeCSS is a fine work of art but I'm always on the verge of forgetting about its internals... And I'm not even sure documenting it further would help, ah ah.)

Ah, in which case then you do have to.

Hmm, guess it does have to be then.
