This could be interesting if existing content by accident has used these
properties on their form control, but if Gecko has shipped it, we should
just make sure it works the same in Chromium.

Specification
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-writing-modes-4/#block-flow
Summary
CSS property writing-mode should be enabled for form
controls elements as it will allow lines of text to be
laid out horizontally or vertically. With this
feature, we are allowing the form control elements
input, textarea, select, meter, progress and button to
have vertical-rl or vertical-lr writing mode. This is
important for interopability.

Risks
Interoperability and Compatibility
If a developer set an element to have `writing-mode:
vertical-lr`: Currently, will default to
`writing-mode: horizontal-tb` and show the element as
horizontal writing mode. With feature, will have
`writing-mode: vertical-lr` and show the element as
vertical writing mode.

Ergonomics
No, there are no other platform APIs this feature will
be frequently be used in tandem with.
Activation
It should not be challenging for developers to take
advantage of this feature immediately as it is simply
using the CSS property on the desired form control
elements.
Security
This is a form control feature and I don't expect
security risks.
WebView application risks
Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of
existing APIs, such that it has potentially high risk
for Android WebView-based applications?
There are no WebView specific changes with this feature.
Debuggability
This feature is debuggable by trying to access the
form control element's writing-mode CSS value in DevTools.
Will this feature be supported on all six Blink
platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS, Android,
and Android WebView)?
Yes
Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests

Availability expectation
Feature is available on Web Platform mainline within
12 months of launch in Chrome.
Adoption expectation
Feature is considered a best practice for some use
case within 12 months of reaching Web Platform baseline.
Adoption plan
We plan to release this feature in milestone 118.
Firefox has already implemented this feature and
Safari is working on it as it is part of Interop2023.
Non-OSS dependencies
Does the feature depend on any code or APIs outside
the Chromium open source repository and its
open-source dependencies to function?
No
Estimated milestones
Shipping on desktop 118
DevTrial on desktop 117
Shipping on Android 118
DevTrial on Android 118
Shipping on WebView 118
Anticipated spec changes
Open questions about a feature may be a source of
future web compat or interop issues. Please list open
issues (e.g. links to known github issues in the
project for the feature specification) whose
resolution may introduce web compat/interop risk
(e.g., changing to naming or structure of the API in a
non-backward-compatible way).
