Allow File Markers

[nikmd23]

Using comments to annotate a css file would go a long way in making CSS Specificity Graphs more useful (as covered by Snooks).

Here's a mock up of my proposal:

Notice the CSS comment I added on line 8. This makes the vertical marker/axis appear. The marker has a tool tip sighting the line number and marker comment.

I've added a few other comments in the file as well, which results in additional markers.

Note that this isn't a design suggestion. I don't think that red would be the best choice, but I don't actually care.

Thanks for your proposal, and the link to that article - I hadn't seen it yet. I'll do some thinking and research on this topic and come I'll come back and see what I can do here. Feel free to add more to the discussion if you have more input.

As for initial discussion - I'm not sure that a CSS comment would be the right mechanism for declaring your mark points. Other mechanisms I consider right now:

• Clicking on (or otherwise selecting) selector in graph, to drop a line marker.
• Passing in the mark points as an optionwhen creating the graph
