RE: [dita] Updated feature 20
Yes, I agree with the XSL (not XSLT) 
reference.

 

CSS3 is not yet a Recommendation, and interoperable 
support is

only guaranteed for those referenced by XSL and the 
HTML DTD.

I don't have a decision here. In the 
  absence of input, I am picking the existing XSLT reference because the list of 
  colors is shorter.
