So in a UA which implements <br> using generated ::before this would
remove the line-break, and in a UA which implements <br> using generated
::after this would leave the line-break, right?
And in a UA which treats <br> as a replaced element this may or may not
do anything at all?
I don't see anything wrong with requiring that <br> not be a replaced
element, but that seems like an HTML decision, not a CSS one.
