The parser indeed doesn't seem to be able to parse that text. I'm not 
sure whether it's an unofficial extension, or it's simply not expected 
to work in CSS files.

If it's the former, and the browsers support it, filing an issue at the

If it's the latter, here's some advice at the end of this answer:
