Would `text-combine-upright: all` actually work well? In Firefox, if I disable `layout.css.marker.restricted` and use

```css
li::marker {
  text-combine-upright: all;
  content: counter(list-item) '. '; /* Force modern marker */
}
```

then I get the following, note the marker dots:

In Chromium, if I enable ::marker and unrestrict it, `text-combine-upright` forces the marker to use legacy layout, but the list item is in LayoutNG, and this fails some asserts.

Using `writing-mode: horizontal-tb` seems better. But the trailing whitespace misaligns it a bit in Chromium due to `white-space: pre`.
