Looks like one of the many dirty hacks for IE/win - like the 'leading 
underscore' but with the additional (dis)advantage that also IE7 will 
read that corrupted 'property: value'.

IE/win will "eat" most corrupted properties, so we have a lot of 
choices. The CSS validator will correctly report parse-errors though.
