"We" being, I suspect, the browser community. If that's overreaching, then I'm content to say that *I* want it to be fully author-stylable, but I believe Moz feels similarly (Tantek is working on making the form controls more author-stylable). >>> Why should we use list-style-type for something that clearly ain=E2=80= =99t >>> no list? >> >> Because it appears that the disclosure triangle wants to have the same >> behavior that ::marker does. > > Does it?

I don't understand the question.
