The UL does not have a class assigned to it, nor is it generically defined
in a style sheet with base properties. What I wanted to do was to say "If
there is an unclassed UL that has any LI with a particular class, style the
UL like so. But leave any other UL alone."
What I wanted was something like:
li.(video,book,web) < UL:parent {style like so;}
