Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-pseudo] Allow custom Properties in ::selection pseudos (revisited) (#11317)

Having a brief look at the PR, what is the model we're going for here? Custom properties apply to the pseudo (thus affecting what the computed value is), yet they "do not inherit"? Does this mean that a pseudo-element element style does not inherit _computed values_ from its parent style, but instead some other kind of value? This would be very annoying indeed, since nothing (else) would need to hold on to such alternate-reality-computed-values, as far as I can tell. We'd need to store/manage those values alongside the actual computed values, just for this.

Why can we not just let them inherit, again?

Sidenote: I do think it's intended that the label `Async Resolution: Call For Consensus` is applied by CSSWG chairs only.

I also don't think this is a great candidate for an async resolution---at least not in its current state.
