Why not? Is there any reason tests couldn't reasonably be added prior to
shipping?

Any idea what the position in the CSS WG is about the maturity of the spec
for this feature? I see a bunch of open spec issues
<https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues?q=is%3Aopen+label%3Acss-inline-3+initial-letter>
mentioning

represent a potential breaking change depending on their resolution?
