Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-pseudo] ::selection style propagation section doesn't reflect reality in any way.

I cannot speak for the WG, but given that other vendors have shipped unprefixed, I would be in favor of Firefox unprefixing it as well.

Separately from that, I think that we should still look into doing what the spec says (or something close), rather than what legacy implementations do, because the legacy approach makes the pseudo useless for anything other than the unqualified `::selection` selector.

This definitely does mean that implementations will have to change, but I am not too worried about web compat, given that we'd be making a previously unusable thing usable.

If the discussion with implentors in the WG confirms that we still want to make `::selection` more broadly useful, I'll try to help out with tests.
