Re: [w3c/webcomponents] Add <a> to safelist of elements that can call attachShadowRoot (#511)

Thanks for the feedback.  In my head I wanted the activation of `a` to work as it would without a shadowRoot and then I get to override it.  For me even without `a is=...` the fact that I can encapsulate the logic in a custom class (not custom elements just yet) *and* effectively handle redistribution of nodes via slots was good enough for me to want to use JS to enhance the element, or leave it alone when either JS or ShadowDOM is not available.

It might be for another bug, but @annevk asked, I was expecting to see the following in the allowed list:

* time (github used it in the past iirc, but now they have a custom element for displaying relative time)
* ul, ol, li, dl, dd, dt
* figure and figcaption
* dialog (/me ducks and runs)

I also was thinking about embed and object as ways of encapsulating a flash->js converter, but that was pie in the sky for me.
