Yes, CSS is moving a bit slower, but not necessary on another route than ECMAscript. PostCSS is CSS' direct equivalent of babel, especially for supporting upcoming standards, but also for easing the use of existing ones.

There are a lot of upcoming CSS4 standards supported by postcss-cssnext: cssnext.io/features/ - some of them already working in the most modern browsers, others only usable with some workarounds. The one I'm most eager to see is nesting (tabatkins.github.io/specs/css-nest...).
