Technically it is because any object that has a style can have a counter-node 
attached. It also reduces the need for static_cast<RenderBox*>.

Also I am not sure RenderBox is generic enough, since any stupid type of 
element can be counted. Imagine:
:first-letter { counter-increment: firstletter 1; }
#count { content: "Number of first letters: " counter(firstletter); }

The plan is to make it more generic to move handling of generated content out 
of RenderContainer. I am trying to find out what is wrong with attr() 
content, and if it needs to be made dynamic it would be created here as well. 
(attr is currently inserted as text during style-selection, but for some 
reason the inserted text is empty)
