You are correct that the same mechanism prevented cross-site information
leaks for "both". In other words, thet modal dialog feature doesn't
propagate, due to the fix for issue 1293191.

:modal is a pseudoclass state that only changes style for a <dialog>
element in the same document as the style sheet using :modal. Therefore a
cross-origin iframe won't be able to change its document's state based on
:modal. So I don't see a way that this feature will introduce new security
or privacy issues. Let me know if this doesn't fully answer your questions.
