Details

Currently only certain properties apply to <option> elements. And even some of those only apply to multi-selects. Those properties include the background-* properties. While e.g. background-image applies to <option> elements inside <select multiple> elements, they don't apply to drop-down selects, which makes them inconsistent. Therefore they should also apply to <select> elements without "multiple" attribute. Test case: https://jsfiddle.net/53rb5bLt/ Sebastian
If easy enough, this bug may not be restricted to background-* properties but also include all the other properties supported in multi-select elements. Sebastian
