Hello folks! A gentle nudge and check in regarding this bug.

I work at the Wikimedia Foundation and on my team, we are working on a replacement wikipage rendering engine (Parsoid) which plans to use CSS counters for localized numbering schemes. We are beginning to nudge different wikis to use custom counter styles instead of hardcoded strings in text for improved UX when these pages are edited. But, not having this support in Safari would limit the availability of this localization (hebrew, hindi, spanish, vietnamese are a few prominent examples). I wanted to gently nudge you all to see if you could prioritize this request. 

Even with the current wikipage rendering engine, having this support would improve rendering for some wikis that already use custom counter styles for ordered lists.

Thanks very much!
