nt1m has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== [css-display][css-pseudo] Clearly define display: contents behaviour on pseudo-elements ==
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display/#box-generation

https://drafts.csswg.org/css-pseudo/

While working on `display: contents` handling for `::backdrop`, I noticed it is not well defined for pseudo elements in general, and behaviour is inconsistent across different browsers (notably for `::marker` or `::file-selector-button`). Should we try and make some easy to understand rules?

It would be convenient if those rules were based on spec concepts, e.g. "tree-abiding pseudo-elements", "Typographic Pseudo-elements". "highlight pseudo-elements".
