I'm happy to help you find a better way, if you can explain to me what you're trying to do.

First-letter works by splitting the RenderText into two RenderTextFragments.
first-line works by giving the first linebox a special style (or rather making style-access on the linebox be sensitive to the possibility of this special style).

It's unclear to me what functionality you're tryign to add to first-line here.

If you're just looking for an easy-patch to get started in WebKIt, this is anything but.  Workign on the linebox tree is hard. :)  If you want to work in the linebox tree or rendering, we can discuss lots of possible clean-up patches to do first.  Generally I find I learn code best by doing various cleanup patches in the area before trying to do systemic changes like this. :)
