This is a followup to bug 325064. Based on the new rules in CSS 2.1 about EOF closing any open constructs, I think a style sheet that ends with "div, p" should be represented in the object graph the same as one that ends with "div, p {}" Right now it is instead dropped. See bug 325064 comment 23 and bug 325064 comment 28.
Note that this covers 3 tests marked todo in layout/style/test/test_css_eof_handling.html
I brought this up with the CSS WG. It turns out that Presto, Blink, WebKit, Gecko and IE10 all agree that a bare selector without an opening '{' is *not* an open style rule to be implicitly closed at EOF and added to the OM. The css-syntax-3 spec makes this explicit. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2013Jun/0283.html http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2013Jun/0317.html http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-syntax/#consume-a-qualified-rule
