Hey Antti, when making a change like this, please consider the modern C++ way to keep this scoped like it was before:

    if (auto layerName = downcast<CSSImportRule>(parentRule)->layerName(); !layerName.isNull()) {

I think it works and makes the code better even though it can be a little hard to spot the code after the semicolon.

The Inspector frontend expects an anonymous layer will not provide the optional `text` parameter. Since this has already landed I've opened Bug 234012 to track cleaning this up.

I did consider it and decided it reads better as two lines. There is no benefit from limiting the scope here.

layerName() returns an empty string for anonymous layers. Maybe best to handle that in the frontend.

Or to be exact CSSLayerBlockRule::name() returns empty string for anonymous layer (and never a null string).

CSSImportRule::layerName() returns null string for no layer specified case and empty string for anonymous layer case.

CSSLayerStatementRule::nameList() returns a vector with at least one item and no empty or null strings.

Makes sense - given this I think I will go ahead and just teach the frontend how to handle an empty string here. Thanks for the clarification!
