It’s far too premature to consider such things. We don’t know what are the
feasible or optimal renderings of <details> elements. Actually, if you wish
to make them widely understood and used, you _don’t_ want to encourage
authors to suggest their idiosyncratic renderings. On the average, a web
author, left alone, creates a much poorer user interface than a person
designing a web browser – simply because the latter is some kind of a
professional in such matters.
If we use 'list-style-type', it seems reasonable to at least agree on
a common list-style-type value.
Why should we use list-style-type for something that clearly ain’t no list?
