Description

When I have this in my css

a:hover {
  text-decoration: underline;
}

and it gets inlined, then inline-css does not include them for links. Why?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how pseudo classes like :hover are processed during CSS inlining. Look at the CSS parsing logic to see if they are intentionally removed or overlooked.
