[css3-ui] Does `resize` apply to generated content?

I tested the `resize` property on various browsers today and the results were buggy everywhere [1]. WebKit/Blink shows a resize handler which does nothing, and Gecko is even weirder, showing a resize handler on the pseudo-element, that resizes the parent!

I posted about this on twitter, and some authors were not even sure whether the property should apply to generated content [2][3]. css3-ui states it should apply to “elements with ‘overflow’ other than visible” in the propdef table [4]. Does this include pseudo-elements? Is there an editorial issue here?
