The spec actually mentions this case explicitly, and the answer is that 
the inline-block is treated as a single unit, the "one" does not become 
the first line. Nor is text-decoration propagated to inline-block boxes, 
that is also called out explicitly.

As with bz's case, the spec explicitly states that form controls are not 
yet defined in terms of CSS.
