Details

bug 40545 was implemented using ::before to render the label content using content: attr(). This use of the pseudo-element was a necessity because bug 1481150 hasn't landed so we couldn't put it in option[label] itself.

So, once bug 1481150 is completed and we can use content: attr(label) inside the option selector itself without a pseudo, we should.

We might also wish to take the opportunity to remove some more of the less-pleasing details of the implementation from bug 40545.
