I don't necessarily object to having a specialized pseudo-element, but the reason we've avoided using ::before/::after in the past for CSS-defined things is the potential for it to conflict with existing author-provided code using those pseudos. That isn't the case here - these are brand new elements, impossible to target by _any_ existing CSS no matter how general. The developer might choose ::before / ::after to do something else with it (add emojis? fancy selected option indicator? add a counter?), if they find out they need to override the default UA stylesheet usage, it's not really a great experience. -- GitHub Notification of comment by nt1m Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/10857#issuecomment-2354109480 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
