By default, the text in a "before" or "after" generated content will be read by a screen reader, but it's often used for things like "★", which, if they were a DOM element would warrant an aria-label. Giving alternative text in the generated content directly will help people to give a better alternative, or to suppress certain decorative character

Chrome seems to have shipped this: https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/blink-dev/nC5p6W8nM3g
