Description
Looks like :popover-open is landing, but it only applies to the popover element itself.
We also need a way to style the Trigger element for the popover element when the popover element is open.
consider the following:
<button popovertarget="my-popover">Open Popover</button>
...
<div popover id="my-popover">Greetings, one and all!</div>
I would like a way to style the button when the popover is open.
This would need to apply to all elements that have the same 'popovertarget'
Ex.
<button popovertarget="my-popover">Open Popover</button>
...
<div popover id="my-popover">Greetings, one and all!</div>
...
<button popovertarget="my-popover">Open Popover From another button</button>
It would be ideal to have something like:
button:popovertarget-open {
...
}
Thanks

Research direction
Start by comparing the requested selector with the existing :popover-open behavior and the HTML examples in this issue. Determine the intended behavior when multiple elements share a popovertarget, including which triggers match while the popover is open. Done means the pseudo-class proposal has defined semantics and corresponding CSSWG specification changes.
