--- Comment #3 from Benjamin Poulain <benjamin at webkit.org> ---
I should probably explain why a bit :)

Previously, we could find out statically if a selector applies to :link or :visited. Since we added support for nested selector lists, it is no longer possible to know the "link-state" of a selector until it is matched.

Because of the privacy risks involved with dynamic resolution, we decided against it.

If you have good use cases for it, we can look into adding support back. But that's gonna be weeks of work.
