I started trying to implement really basic form controls, and I've become stuck on my under-developed layout knowledge. HTMLInputElement is special, because it has no DOM children and instead needs to perform layout based on its value attribute (which contains the current text). This seems similar to generated content from pseudo-elements, but I can't see a good way to reuse that code for this purpose (I guess it's done by iterating over fake children so flows are created). What's the best way to go about this?
I figured that if we were going the Web Components-ish route for form controls then the component logic (written in JavaScript) would just extract the value of the "value" attribute and copy it to a text node under the input element.
