Hannes,

Thanks for the review.

I did have a separate discussion yesterday with Pavel about the relative 
merits of adding items to the style sheet vs adding stuff into the test. 
At that time, I did not understand the use of all the names as well as I 
do now, and I was not comfortable adding stuff into the stylesheet that 
would need additional explanation for stuff that may be hard to 
explain/justify and which needs cleaning up.

Going forward, we are definitely on a path towards better documenting 
all these class names, in either a spec document or in the stylesheet 
itself. In the meantime, I think the test is the right place to hide 
these details.   Note in particular that the test will intentionally 
fail if any of the extra class names are found in the stylesheet.  Yes, 
that may make the test fail depending on how we update the stylesheet, 
but thatIMO would be a good thing, and encourage us to maintain the list.

The test determines the set of known CSS class names, based on the CSS class names defined in the stylesheet, and a set of known additional class names, and then reads the output generated from a small sample API, and verifies that the values of all the "class" attributes are in set of known CSS class names.
