Probably regressed with r271515, confirming this now.

[Antoine Quint]

Indeed, it is, regressed due to r271515, the fix for bug 220652.

[Antoine Quint]

Just looking at the very simple patch, the order in which pseudo-elements are generated is different since in the PseudoId enum the relative order is Marker, Before, After. While changing the order in which we process animations likely addresses this, I don't think this should be relevant and there is some sorting code somewhere that hasn't been updated for ::marker support.

[Antoine Quint]

Indeed, this simple patch fixes the regression:

     if (auto beforeElementUpdate = resolvePseudoStyle(element, update, PseudoId::Before))
         pseudoUpdates.set(PseudoId::Before, WTFMove(*beforeElementUpdate));

-        pseudoUpdates.set(PseudoId::Marker, WTFMove(*markerElementUpdate));
 
 #if ENABLE(TOUCH_ACTION_REGIONS)
     // FIXME: Track this exactly.


But I think this should be handled by the compareDeclarativeAnimationOwningElementPositionsInDocumentTreeOrder() utility.

[Antoine Quint]

Oh, we simply don't invoke the composite order sorting code when dispatching events, in DocumentTimelinesController::updateAnimationsAndSendEvents():

    // 6. Perform a stable sort of the animation events in events to dispatch as follows.
    std::stable_sort(events.begin(), events.end(), [] (const Ref<AnimationEventBase>& lhs, const Ref<AnimationEventBase>& rhs) {
        // 1. Sort the events by their scheduled event time such that events that were scheduled to occur earlier, sort before events scheduled to occur later
        // and events whose scheduled event time is unresolved sort before events with a resolved scheduled event time.
        // 2. Within events with equal scheduled event times, sort by their composite order. FIXME: Need to do this.
        return lhs->timelineTime() < rhs->timelineTime();
    });

So this test progressed when we added support for ::marker, but in a very fragile way that just worked out of luck.

[Antoine Quint]

That said, touching the event sorting code is a bit risky so I'll do the first fix which will restore functionality.
