This is problematic if an element with :hover styling is hidden until a :hover state is activated on its ancestor.

When :hover is checked, the current element and all its parents should receive the :hover state as well.

EXAMPLE
===
Say we have a common nav setup:

ul > li > ul {
    display: none;
}
ul > li:hover > ul {
    display: block;
}
ul > li > ul a:hover {
    color: green;
}

In this example, I want to tweak the link's :hover color.  However, I can't easily interact with Web Inspector and hover over the <li> at the same time.  Thus, the link is hidden entirely from view.
