That would require parsing a huge amount of CSS for pages that are likely to never use quotes, and parsing the UA sheet is already considered expensive and memory consuming. It also means that every page has an extra 150 rules to match against.

dhyatt made the original decision to not include a huge CSS sheet in WebKit back on WKBug 3234 and could likely give you more context. He originally mentioned implementing this with CSS, but later said:

"Yes, although I don't want a giant CSS implementation.  This should be done in code."
