Since the spec-compliant way of dealing with punctuation before the first letter is not always what I want (and even if :first-letter were supported, I'm pretty sure punctuation treatment would be defective), I'm not so troubled by the lack of support. It's more reliable to use spans anyway.

Yes, although you can't really put a span around the first line, because you don't know what the first line will be.
