Same goes for ::value. Fwiw that is also feedback I gave Tab regarding a placeholder pseudo; if HTML controls ever become web components, retro-fitting legacy pseudos we introduce today to work around the limitations of other features will probably not be good times. To be fair I don't think it'd be too hard; I just don't think this is how you'd want to do it if you started from scratch. As for shadow DOM/Web Components, I believe work is definitely going on there.
