Hi! Thanks for the quick LGTM, sending a quick update on feature as we are preparing to ship part of it in 118.
Due to a bug for the text based form controls (crbug.com/484651), we are planning to ship this feature in two parts. *FormControlsVerticalWritingModeSupport* * select * meter * progress * button * non-text-based input types These elements are fully implemented and put behind the flag in 118. We will do a slow rollout release using Finch. We want to release them first because many interop2023 tests depend on these changes [1] *FormControlsVerticalWritingModeTextSupport* * textarea * input types email, number, password, search, tel, text, url. These elements will not be enabled in stable until crbug 484651 is fixed.
