   * TeX rendering rules are frame-dependent too. These two methods are meant
   * to be implemented by frame classes that need to assert specific properties
   * within their subtrees.
   *
   * InheritAutomaticData() is called in a top-down manner [like nsIFrame::Init],
   * as we descend the frame tree, whereas TransmitAutomaticData() is called in a
   * bottom-up manner, as we ascend the tree [like nsIFrame::SetInitialChildList].

   * subtree to handle dynamic changes that happen in the content model.
   *
   * As a rule of thumb:
   *
   * 1. Use InheritAutomaticData() to set properties related to your ancestors:
   *    - set properties that are intrinsic to yourself
   *    - set properties that depend on the state that you expect your ancestors
   *      to have already reached in their own InheritAutomaticData().
   *    - set properties that your descendants assume that you would have set in
   *      your InheritAutomaticData() -- this way, they can safely query them and
   *      the process will feed upon itself.
   *
   * 2. Use TransmitAutomaticData() to set properties related to your descendants:
   *    - set properties that depend on the state that you expect your descendants
   *      to have reached upon processing their own TransmitAutomaticData().
   *    - transmit properties that your descendants expect that you will transmit to
   *      them in your TransmitAutomaticData() -- this way, they remain up-to-date.
   *    - set properties that your ancestors expect that you would set in your
   *      TransmitAutomaticData() -- this way, they can safely query them and the
