 - **Declarative Configuration via `<datalist>`**: Configure keywords and options purely in HTML by nesting standard `<datalist>` elements with `<option>` tags inside `<rich-input>`.
 - **Rich Option Markup**: Embed custom HTML markup (such as logos, images, icons, and avatars) directly inside `<option>` elements for rich, visual suggestion popovers.
 - **Form Associated**: Implements `static formAssociated = true` and `ElementInternals` to participate seamlessly in `<form>` submission, `FormData`, and form reset lifecycles.

+In browsers without `OpaqueRange` that support the CSS Custom Highlight API (such as Safari 17.2+ and Firefox 141+), `<rich-input>` automatically falls back to an adapted single-line `[contenteditable]` element inside its shadow DOM. This exposes standard DOM `Text` nodes so standard `Range` objects can be created and passed to `CSS.highlights`, delivering on-the-fly `::highlight()` syntax highlighting across browsers. In environments lacking range positioning, popover dropdowns are positioned using a hidden mirror `<div>` text measurement fallback.

+In browsers using the `[contenteditable]` fallback inside Shadow DOM (such as Safari and Firefox), `<rich-input>` automatically syncs document-level `::highlight()` rules into its shadow stylesheet so that highlighting works across shadow boundaries without extra markup.
+
+For self-contained widgets or instance-specific style overrides, `<rich-input>` also supports an optional embedded `<style>` block as a direct child, which is automatically injected into the shadow root:
+
+```html
+<rich-input value='artist:"Aphex Twin" label:"XL Recordings"'>
+  <style>
+    ::highlight(label) {
+      background-color: #dbeafe;

+    }
+  </style>
+  <datalist id="label" label="Record Label">...</datalist>
+</rich-input>
+```
+
 > **Note:** Supported CSS properties on `::highlight()` include `color`, `background-color`, `text-decoration`, `text-shadow`, `-webkit-text-stroke-color`, `-webkit-text-stroke-width`, and `-webkit-text-fill-color`.
