Currently, no.

Eventually we want to remove the [Supplemental] IDL attribute and support the "A implements B" syntax as defined in the WebIDL. Do you have any alternative solution to make CSS Regions work without the "A implements B" syntax? If no, maybe it's time to consider supporting the "A implements B" syntax (, which would require a substantial amount of work though:-).
