I feel like we need a name for css-the-syntax (and maybe -the-semantics) as separate from css-the-body-of-rules/functions/units/etc-defined-by-csswg.

There's juice in it, but it's hard to talk about and survey other uses without just searching GH for code using css parsers and just see what kind of shenanigans people are up to.

I've been playing around with a weird thing that's kinda like a template engine, but driven by a mix of a lightweight node-based markup language, css selectors for expressing what goes into the template, and a css-alike for controlling exactly how all of these parts come together.
