title: Custom CSS properties, why not?
body: <p>I had hoped CSS3 would bring about custom CSS properties that could be readable to JavaScript, and affect elements behavior. JavaScript libraries like jQuery UI pass styling options through JavaScript API, just like ASP.NET controls e.g. It should bother serious developers who have AOP in mind. Why is it not considered useful to have CSS custom properties e.g. "-ui-resizable-handles:e se;" or in whatever format. AOP is what CSS is all about, is it not?</p>
