Given the only use I've seen for 'initial-letter' has been in combination with the pseudo-selector ::first-letter for drop caps and my personal opinion is that drop caps are, at best, useless—perhaps, you have noticed that very often drop caps only work over a limited range of font sizes?—and should never be used unless you really want to emulate an illustrated manuscript. The only time I formatted an illustrated manuscript, I found that using images was the best looking way to go.
