[Laszlo-dev] For Review: Change change.7sdt5h8wX.txt Summary: Parse $style constraints

[Benjamin Shine]

I don't think there's one bug that does it -- it's part of LPP-2309,  
and LPP-2510 is related.
It compiles ok (in coal) -- now I'll make some tests for it.

BTW, Frisco is now the CSS doc guy.
