CSS rule that changes background is not being applied for on a non-button element.

To reproduce, use the following example (available at https://next.plnkr.co/edit/wYsCEVvT3eJgSRre?preview) -
HTML:
```
<div class="btn" type="submit">Hello world</div>
<button class="btn" type="submit">Hello world</div>
```

CSS:
```
[type="submit"].btn {
  background-color: red;
}

[type="submit"] {
     -webkit-appearance: button;
}
```

The div.btn does not have a red background, expected that it should have a red background.

background-color only disables appearance on actual buttons, not divs. I think this is reasonable/by design. If you want the 'none' appearance on a div, don't set it to 'button'.
