One option is to define that the list-style-type 'disclosure-*' as magic values

doesn't seem quite right.
The CSSWG discussed and agreed to add these to the draft back in 2011.

CSS3-UI, however, uses the 'appearance' property to render native looking
controls.
In theory, native widgets could be achieved instead by using a new 'appearance'
value like:
summary::marker { appearance: -x-disclosure; }
(Assuming the 'appearance' value handles the open/close states automatically,
and any animations that would be expected of
native controls)
The only value of 'appearance' that actually works IIRC is 'none'.
I'm not sure I'd recommend it as a good way forward for anything
since it's not clear how other values are supposed to work.
