Not a requirement; that's why it was a "warning" not an "error." What it's
doing is reminding you that you haven't set a background color for a class
or ID that you set a color on, so you need to check and make sure that the
color is not the same as the background color for that item. It simply
checks for syntax; it doesn't do enough analysis to know what the
background color for a particular ID will be if not specified because it
doesn't know the context in which you'll be using the ID.
IOW, it's telling you whether the syntax is valid, and then giving you a
"heads-up" on some other things that you might want to check. If you're
anal about such things, you can go back through your CSS and specify
background colors for everything. Otherwise, you can just accept the
warnings and go on. Warnings do not prevent a sheet from being valid.
