The real problem here seems to me either that the style rule should not apply to the <br> inside the input element, or we should not use a <br> inside the input element. We don’t want a style rule to have any effect on the elements inside the shadow tree.

Adding a special case to the replace command doesn’t necessarily seem like the right fix to me. It might be OK as a workaround, but it seems a little random.
