Field notes
A .cssv file places CSS between two --- fences and RFC 4180 CSV after them; the renderer supplies a fixed table model with data-col, data-row, and data-key hooks. The page also documents deliberate limits: there are no formulas, and cell values are not copied into arbitrary attributes. A conformance matrix links specification requirements to tests, with examples checked in Node and headless Chromium.
