Wasn't it determined that CSS3 validation would give a clean bill of health to way too much stuff that isn't allowed (or won't work) in epub2? Seemed to me it would be including the bathwater with the baby when just the @font-face declarations were in question.
Surely CSS3 will be necessary with a version of Sigil that can create/view/edit HTML5 in EPUB3s, but until such time, I think it would be a mistake to validate the slew of stuff that won't work in EPUB2 just to make the @font-face errors go away. The "Why isn't this working when it clearly validates?" questions would go through the roof. Still ... if it was a configurable user choice, one could always say, "you chose the wrong spec."
