Many sites (and sites that I create in particular) use large number of techniques for crossbrower compatibility. For example css
* {
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
box-sizing is standard property but FF doesn't support it in favour of
-moz-box-sizing. But why dropping of box-sizing cause error message instead of warning.
div.Clazz1 {
display: inline-block;
display: table-cell;
}
this construct in some cases gives desired result for compatibilty. But again dropping unknown "inline-block" property value gives error message.

But when error occured in js processing than whole processing thread is terminated for given declaration, function, file, event handling etc.
Just ignoring (dropping) unknown properties and values means that this kind of
css errors are simply warning, not errors. But if they are threated as errors than it is very difficult to distinguish them from really serious showstopping errors (for example js malfunction).

Conclusion: I propose to give css dropping unknown properties and value errors
serverity "warning" on jsconsole

Reproducible: Always
