            Bug ID: 179815
           Summary: If first letter is preceded by 'En dash', both should
                    be considered within ::first-letter when lang=nb, no
                    or nn
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 11
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: CSS
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

According to the specification the following should be included in ::first-letter:
"Punctuation (i.e, characters defined in Unicode in the "open" (Ps), "close" (Pe), "initial" (Pi). "final" (Pf) and "other" (Po) punctuation classes), that precedes or follows the first letter should be included."
https://drafts.csswg.org/selectors-3/#first-letter


It also states:
"In some cases the ::first-letter pseudo-element should include more than just the first non-punctuation character on a line."

In the Norwegian language quotes are started either with Left-pointing Double Angle Quotation Mark '«' or an En Dash '–'. The User agent should treat these equally and include them and the following letter in the ::first-letter pseudo element.
