Variables are a whole different step from value computation.
Saying that writing-mode and direction applies to `:visited`, but only in a half-assed way (for custom-property mapping, but not for layout or anything else) seems somewhat inconsistent.
Note that there's still another case we should define which is how should it resolve for `a:link { different-writing-mode }`.
What I've implemented in Gecko uses the unvisited writing mode unconditionally for custom-property mapping (that is, `:link` has effect in the `:visited` style), which is somewhat inconsistent, but was the only reasonable way to implement without adding a lot of extra complexity.
Also, I think it's a much easier behavior to implement at least for WebKit and Blink as well.
