Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-forms-1] Checkbox stylesheet missing indeterminate handling (#11869)

The CSS Working Group just discussed `[css-forms-1] Checkbox stylesheet missing indeterminate handling`, and agreed to the following:

* `RESOLVED: define styling for the indeterminate state that the content is visible and it turns into unicode 2500`

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;jarhar> astearns: is this only about changing the character thats displayed for indeterminate?<br>
&lt;jarhar> lwarlow: yes, update the content property when its an indeterminate checkmark, and make sure visibility:hidden isnt set when its indeterminate<br>
&lt;masonf> q+<br>
&lt;jarhar> astearns: sounds good to me, we can also put it in the spec and then people can tell us were wrong<br>
&lt;jarhar> masonf: i think it looks great, just wanted to ask: is it grayed out when its indeterminate?<br>
&lt;jarhar> lwarlow: currently a mixed bag for what browsers do. they alll change the symbol. in chrome its the same color but changes the symbol<br>
&lt;jarhar> lwarlow: other browsers in certain states may do certain things<br>
&lt;jarhar> lwarlow: given the relative lack of color in base ui, change the symbol first and come up with other stuff<br>
&lt;jarhar> lwarlow: disabled state is shown based on that<br>
&lt;jarhar> masonf: +1 from me<br>
&lt;jarhar> proposed resolution: define styling for the indeterminate state that the content is visible and it turns into unicode 2500<br>
&lt;jarhar> RESOLVED: define styling for the indeterminate state that the content is visible and it turns into unicode 2500<br>
