I have changed the spec for hashless hex color and unitless length to be
closer to reality (I hope). I have limited the them to the properties in
CSS2.1 that have colors or lengths but aren't in the list above. I made
"support hashless hex colors" match IE instead of the other browsers,
since IE was stricter (even in compat view). I still haven't figured out
'font', but I'll get to it.
I did some quick and dirty research on dotnetdotcom's web200904 data, and
based on my findings, I removed outline-color, background-position,
border-spacing, bottom, font, max-height, max-width, min-height,
min-width, text-indent and vertical-align from the spec.
outline-color and font I found *no* occurrences that needed these quirks
(although I didn't run through the whole file when searching for 'font').
For the others, I applied an arbitrary threshold of usage and made cut-off
to make the list of properties a bit shorter.
Now follows the scripts I used and some notes.

Obviously I made a mistake in the regexp and so e.g. border-right-color
shows up as right-color.
Other than typos and scrollbar-* properties, the ones that are used are
the ones that are specced.
In particular, outline-color did not show up at all.

Forgot to include "-" before the number in the regex (e.g. text-indent
accepts negative values).

Looks like 'clip' is used with and without commas, with and without units.
'font'
$ grep -iaPo "font\s*:\s*[^;\}>]+" web200904 > font.txt
^C
I appended a ";" after each line, removed all " and ' (which shouldn't
affect the font-size thing)
and put the whole thing in a ruleset and loaded it in a quirks mode doc vs
a standards mode doc in
Firefox to see what was logged to the error console. There were 120465
lines, supposedly 'font'
declarations. 157+4+6+1+1+1 errors in the console in both quirks mode and
standards mode. This means
none of them had unitless font-size. Most common error seemed to be to
omit the font-size and/or
font-family. This may need more research, but maybe we don't need this
quirk for 'font'.
