@MoritzGlantz You’re correct in a way that we can work around the os level issues in these elements that we couldn’t do before.
Using you’r example in the second link even though we’re styling the element, we’re just hiding the original one and building the custom one from scratch witch is not ideal and doesn’t guarantee consistency across browsers unfortunately (looking at you safari lol).

@MoritzGlantz just a follow up since I ran out of space (I can talk for days on this xD) been dealing with this for over 20 years and we’ve come a looong way. But I would still consider this approach as a hack and ideally we should only style the element native properties so it should flow naturally with the layout
