Why not use pseudo elements?

edit: actually looks like it doesn't work in chrome. Anyone know why?

Works for me in Chrome (22.0.1229.94 on Win7). There's nothing in the CSS to prevent it from working in Webkit.

You beat me to it.

I'd say it's WebKit — not just Chrome — since it doesn't work with Safari 6 either.
