Description
A curious "Properties as Variable" misinterpretation.
Basically he's expecting (as I can guess) Less will read actual background property from a unknown * HTML element of a run-time page.
It's not that in the current documentation it's is not clear in that sense (it is - if you know Less has nothing to do with HTML pages), but still it would not harm to stress it's all about properties explicitly specified in the same CSS/Less code and not properties of HTML elements (of the page you apply your compiled CSS to - whatever ridiculous that may sound).

Research direction
Review the Properties as Variable documentation and the linked Stack Overflow example first. Clarify that the feature refers to properties explicitly written in the same CSS/Less source, not properties read from HTML elements or a runtime page; the documentation is complete when that distinction is explicit.
