Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 Also, there is this point to keep in mind if we were to use something php
 based:

 http://minify.googlecode.com/svn/tags/release_2.1.3/min/lib/Minify/CSS/Compressor.php

 {{{
  * This is a heavy regex-based removal of whitespace, unnecessary
  * comments and tokens, and some CSS value minimization, where practical.
  * Many steps have been taken to avoid breaking comment-based hacks,
  * including the ie5/mac filter (and its inversion), but expect tricky
  * hacks involving comment tokens in 'content' value strings to break
  * minimization badly. A test suite is available.
 }}}
