Hm, that seems quite nice. Are you okay with the actual property
accessors being lazy, so you don't necessarily have to do a lot of
value computation up-front?
For the last one, this could give us an excuse to finally reify
pseudo-elements as DOM constructs, for the return value of your
pseudoStyle() function (though I'd call it something else).
