Customisable counters are needed for many languages.

There is no way for users to create local counter styles that are not built in to the browser, and users also often want to tweak the counter style in some way (esp. the prefix/suffix).

For Japanese, this means that a number of predefined counter styles in the CSS Counter Styles spec are not widely supported by browsers, or use a different separator from that specified. Because the custom mechanism of the Counter Styles spec is not supported by browsers other than Firefox, users are unable to fix this for themselves.

The following are additional items of Japanese-specific information.

Tests & results:
i18n test suite, Basic tests for support of @counter-styles
i18n test suite, Tests for hiragana/katakana styles
i18n test suite, Tests for kanji character styles

Browser bug reports:

Chromium
WebKit

If a counter style is supported but with the wrong separator, that should be filed as a separate issue against the implementations...
