Re: [csswg-drafts] [CSS Pseudo] Revisit CSS Custom Properties in highlight pseudos (#9909) from Bramus via GitHub on 2024-02-16 (public-css-archive@w3.org from February 2024)

What about a combination where you look at the originating element and then the highlight pseudo of the parent until you end up at the root? That would be least confusing to authors.

For example, this markup:

```html
<html>
  <body>
    <div>
      <p>…</p>
    </div>
  </body>
<html>
```

When selecting text in the paragrph, this would be the lookup chain:

- p::selection
- p
- div::selection
- div
- body::selection
- body
- :root::selection
- :root
