Do you know what else has a CSS property that basically no browser (but Safari) implements? Dropcaps. Specifically,
initial-letter.
So, instead we have to rely on hacky floats with specially crafted font size, margins, line height, and break whenever a different font is used.
(No one on the web cares, they just use a Javascript solution and call it a day).
