Thanks a lot for this, I just cleaned up a Sass file of some properties.

Not sure if you want to include another section to this doc with elements that may have been in the HTML5 spec at one time (and possibly partially implemented in some browsers), but no longer are part of the official spec. "hgroup" is one such element. It does still exist in the WHATWG version, however.

Since Installing CSS3 and disabling CSS I no longer see !important in the hints. Not a big deal unless you're working with a Wordpress theme that requires this declaration. Unfortunately I'm working with a Wordpress theme that requires this declaration in order to override the defaults.

Come on people! Delete existing CSS package and tons goes blank, where hints should happen. I am left always using multiple hint titles, last used goes to top of hint list. When is this "CSS3" plugin going to be completed? 2100? Millennium 3000?

CSS3 doesn't offer an !important completion by design. !important should be used rarely, and you should have to think about it when you use it. The extra friction of having to type all the characters in !important is intentional. CSS3 also doesn't offer deprecated and non-standard CSS as completions.

I understand there are practical concerns and legacy browsers are still around, but browsers have come a long way in just the last year. Most of the web has moved to evergreen browsers. A lot of the hacks and -vendor- prefixes of the past aren't necessary any more.
