Yes! I'm always unsure about IE behavior in these cases, since it's not always consistent. For example, an extra comma at the end of a selectors list does not cause the whole rule to be ignored (someone uses this as an hack.) Also, an unsupported/non-existent pseudo class/element (like p:last-child, or p:qq) doesn't cause the whole block do be skipped in IE, while good browsers seem to do this.
