Related question: is there a use case for this and any implementation interest? Because if not I'm happy to defer this question and the feature entirely to L5. :) |

The CSS Working Group just discussed
The full IRC log of that discussion<dael> Topic: [css-pseudo-4] painting of the cursor and the caret with highlight pseudos<dael> github: https://github.com//issues/4100 <GameMaker> q+ <dael> fantasai: florian asked hwat happened with multi highlights and different caret values. Which one wins. top or top non-auto. Top most non-auto makes more sense I think but I don't know. Is anyone planning to impl these properties? <castastrophe> Sorry, I need to drop <dael> Rossen_: Regardless of plan to impl we should be able to define expected behavior. If top-most non-auto makes most sense we can resolve and when people impl if it's not the right choice we can discuss again then <dael> florian: Alternative could be if no one thinks this is good to impl we could drop from list of elements that apply to this psedo element. These were added b/c not layout effecting. But if there's no interest we could drop them. <dael> Rossen_: CHoices are drop it or top-most non-auto <Rossen_> q? <dael> GameMaker: I wasn't on the call but I recall reading notes about issues with this and grammar and auto-spell check b/c loading resources could be a security issue <Rossen_> ack GameMaker <dael> GameMaker: Maybe didn't understand discussion, but thinking that could be a reason to drop. In my impl I haven't looked at doing cursor or caret. Definitely would be more complicated to do. I'm in favor of just dropping cursor and caret <tantek> +1 to dropping. seems to add complexity for theoretical reasons <dael> Rossen_: Anyone want to keep those? <dael> florian: Not a strong want but it seems security only applied to one of the two. Caret color won't load resources <dael> fantasai: But if no one wants to impl and there's no strong usecase we should drop <tantek> I'd be in favor of only reconsidering them if an implementor felt compelled to try implementing it (for whatever reason) <dael> Rossen_: Objections to dropping caret-color and cursor? <dael> RESOLVED: drop caret-color and cursor |

https://drafts.csswg.org/css-pseudo-4/#highlight-styling says that highlight pseudos can take the
caret-colorandcursorproperties, but https://drafts.csswg.org/css-pseudo-4/#highlight-painting doesn't say how they're rendered.Possibilities:
