When used under an element with an explicit text-align:start (or text-align:end), text-align:match-parent works properly. However, it does not seem to have any effect when no ancestor of the element has an explicit text-align value.

Thus, data:text/html,<div dir=ltr style="text-align:start">a!<div dir=rtl style="text-align:-webkit-match-parent">b!</div></div> works properly.
But data:text/html,<div dir=ltr>a!<div dir=rtl style="text-align:-webkit-match-parent">b!</div></div> does not.
