           Summary: dialog part of inert subtrees section is not clear

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #23381 +++

the spec says:

"An entire Document can be marked as blocked by a modal dialog subject. While a
Document is so marked, every node that is in the Document, with the exception
of the subject element, its ancestors, and its descendants, must be marked
inert." 

http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/editing.html#inert-subtrees

what should mean that everything but dialog, its ancestors and descendants must
be inert. However if the dialog is part of the document then that everything
includes no element.

Is "its ancestors" specified by mistake?
