That's right, there is no difference. The generated content doesn't
actually affect the contents of the element in the document, only the
way it is presented. Thus, they all should be red.
What about this:
<test>foo</test>
test:contains('foo') { content: 'bar' }
According to your logic, first the selector would match, the contents
would be changed, then it would no longer match, so it would be changed
back, then it would match again...
