Color variable definitions are marked as Unknown property [message #1729676]

In my application's CSS file, I define several color variables to use with my styling, like so:

.root {
-mote-dark: #142147;
-mote-light: #D6DDF3;
-mote-pale: aliceblue;
}

The e(fx)clipse CSS editor marks these as "Unknown property" warnings. It doesn't really affect anything, all the colors are correctly picked up by my classes. It's just annoying having the file marked with warnings when it is perfectly okay. Is this a bug in the e(fx)clipse CSS editor, or is there a better way to declare color variables?

First of all the warning is expected because those are from a plain CSS
PoV unknown properties.

You can suppress those workings by putting

/* @SuppressWarning */

directly above each line. We have no real clue how we could detect that
all you wanted is to define color key and don't have a typo in the property.

Thanks Tom. I thought I saw something in Bootstrap relating to setting up color variables, but I realised that was part of pre-processing, not in the end CSS file. At least I can suppress the warning!
