[css3-background] Computed value of background-position, and other background-*

I know we're in CR already, but I didn't notice before, so better late  
than never...

The computed value of background-position is described as:

   Two keywords representing the origin and two offsets from that
   origin, each given as an absolute length (if given a <length>),
   otherwise as a percentage.

The value of background-position is defined as "<position [,<position>]*".  
The description would work if there was only 1 position, but there can be  
several and the phrasing is oblivious to that.

The original subject of this mail implied I'd be discussing some things I  
eventually changed my mind about. Ignore the part after the comma.
