Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-pseudo] Allow animations on ::first-letter and ::first-line similar to ::marker (#12814)

I think there's nothing technically preventing animating all pseudo-elements. Authors can for example create an animation on a custom variable on some ancestor element and use that custom variable in these non-tree-abiding pseudo-elements ([demo](https://jsbin.com/qeyeweg/edit?html,css,output)). That said, I think support in chromium could take significant effort and so we may not be able to support this for some time.
