Parsing of these pseudo-elements was implemented in bug 1348488, and we would need to implement the full support of these pseudo-elements for using stylo in chrome.
Bug 1324698 probably depends on this.

So... we probably need to invoke a special matching function in selectors::matching::matches_complex_selector somehow, so that we can do the special check for XUL tree pseudo.

There are several options:

1. Add a function reference (as trait object reference) to MatchingContext which takes a pseudo-element and returns whether it matches. Conceptually this matches the old Gecko approach before bug 1407843. But this is probably very hard, because MatchingContext is not generic over SelectorImpl trait, so it cannot contain any impl-specific bits in its definition.

2. Add a method to SelectorImpl to do the special matching, and put some context data in MatchingContext. It is the same concept of Gecko approach after bug 1407843. This would be either hard or unsafe as well, because of the same reason as (1): we cannot put impl-specific data in MatchingContext. We may put an opaque pointer there, but we would lose all the type-safety...

3. Add an optional function parameter like the "flags_setter", which captures the necessary information itself, all the way from get_pseudo_style down to matches_complex_selector. This would change a bunch of functions, and majority of them would be called with None on that parameter in other places. It seems rather unfortunate to change this many functions just for tree pseudo.

4. Change how we get the input words. Since we only request the style from nsTreeBodyFrame, which should always be the primary frame of <treechildren> element, we can probably add a function in nsTreeBodyFrame to get the array, and query that array via element when doing the matching. This way we would not need to pass any data with context, and thus we can probably reuse most of existing code and only need to add a new method to SelectorImpl. The down side is that it would add a dependency from style system to layout, which is quite unfortunate, but maybe acceptable?

I'm going to do a trial of (4) in Gecko and see if that works as expected. If so, we can implement this way in Stylo to avoid the annoyance of (1) ~ (3).
Depends on: 1409596
A variation to (2) would be putting an &Any in MatchingContext as extra data, and add a new method to SelectorImpl, then have that method dynamically cast the extra data to what we need.

(4) is not that easy since style resolving can be invoked before the frame is set as the primary frame. We can probably assert that in the case the element doesn't have the primary frame, the array is empty. This may be true for code there.

Also it seems to me that the array is usually populated just before the code tries to get the style context, so I guess conceptually that array should be considered as an extra local argument of selector matching rather than an element state, which means (4) probably doesn't make as much sense as I thought before.

Another option is to pass the Option<&PseudoElement> further down into matches_complex_selector, and we can construct a PseudoElement contains the information.
I talked with Xidorn about this, and I think that there's anything particularly hard about making MatchingContext not generic over SelectorImpl.

  https://github.com/servo/servo/pull/18934 is a simple patch that does it.

I wonder if we should use `CustomIdent`, and call `CustomIdent::to_css` instead. That way we would need to change less places when we finally avoid converting to a rust string for `Atom`, wdyt?

Should we instead use `Option<Box<>>`? Seems like that would've prevented the serialization bug above... or maybe not. Anyway, the other serialization patch should probably move here.

Also, do we want to parse them on content docs? (I'd rather don't, and doesn't seem a web-compat problem)

This should move back to be an assertion then:

`debug_assert!(matches!(origin, Origin::UserAgent))`,

You should probably keep the `!selector.is_universal()` though.

Bug 1397644 part 1 - Implement XUL tree pseudo style resolution for stylo.

"style resolution" instead of "style resolving", maybe?

I think you can just:

```
return Servo_ResolveXULTreePseudoStyle(
    aParentElement,
    ...
).Consume();
```

if you want. Not sure even if it's cleaner, but thought I'd mention it.

Is it worth to keep the `MOZ_XUL` ifdefs? I suspect firefox doesn't build without it :)

Maybe `stateless_pseudo_matching_function`? Not sure I love it, but `pseudo_element_matching` doesn't say a lot about it.

Maybe `pseudo_element_matching_function`, at least?

nit: Use block indentation for the arguments:

self.lazy_pseudo_rules(
    guards,
    element,
    pseudo,
    is_probe,
    rule_inclusion,
    matching_func,

Maybe `assert!(cfg!(debug_assertions))` here?

I'm 80% confident that Fennec builds without `MOZ_XUL` so we need to keep it. Actually we would probably need to add some xul flag to geckolib at some point as well for Fennec I suppose.

> Maybe `assert!(cfg!(debug_assertions))` here?

How is that useful? I suppose log wouldn't run this function if `RUST_LOG` isn't set for this module. Also `ResolveXULTreePseudoStyle` wouldn't be called very often (because layout code caches the result), so I'm not too concerned about this becoming a big noise.

That might be a good idea, but `CustomIdent` maps to a well-defined concept in CSS (the `<custom-ident>`), which excludes certain keywords. Although those keywords may not appear here, I'm not sure whether we want to mix them... I suppose we don't.

Yeah, probably we can move that patch here... That patch lives there simply because I found it after I finish the main part (part 1), and I reuse one function added in the main part. Maybe I can merge both into this patch.

For content docs, I think we do? We haven't unship tree pseudos (see bug 1379031). This specific case may not matter, but we probably want to keep consistent on tree pseudos for both non-functional and functional.

We should unship them together at some point...

I think we can assert both...
