Description
Motivation
In Typescript I want to theme parameter names and their types separately, but sometimes this is not possible at all due to raw text that cannot be tracked by CSS rules.
Description
When a type for a parameter is not a builtin or styled otherwise, this happens when styling .token.parameter:
The generated HTML just inserts the parameter and the type as plain text:
As you can see, the strings are written raw to the output without wrapping them at all. I can't even use :first-child to track the parameter name.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the TypeScript example and inspecting how .token.parameter produces the generated HTML. Trace the parameter token handling, then verify that parameter names and non-builtin types are independently targetable rather than inserted as unwrapped raw text.
