When editing a CSS value, a completion list of suggested list shows up. The list of values depends on the type of property. In the current implementation, the value 'inherit' is only available for inheritable properties.

According to the "CSS Cascading and Inheritance Level 3" recommendation, the value 'inherit' is valid for any CSS property, not only for those which are inheritable.

In addition, the value 'unset' should also be added to the list of suggested values, as it can be applied to any CSS property. The value 'unset' works as 'inherit' for inheritable properties and works as 'initial' for non-inheritable properties.
