Comment (by afercia):

 Unfortunately, [http://red-team-design.com/css-generated-content-replaced-
 elements/ CSS generated content is not guaranteed to work on replaced
 elements] If it works in some browsers, that's a non standard behavior and
 not future-proof. Technically, it's a bug. See for example Lea Verou's
 comment on the linked article:
  Yes, although convenient, this behavior is technically a bug in these
 engines. I think extending :before and :after to apply to replaced
 elements was discussed in the CSSWG and rejected ...

 That's the reason why in #28539 I was suggesting to consider a different
 approach.

 For reference: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/generate.html#before-after-
 content
 ...
 Note. This specification does not fully define the interaction of :before
 and :after with replaced elements (such as IMG in HTML). This will be
 defined in more detail in a future specification.
