Haven't tested IE, but it seems likely that interoperability requires at least some cloning of hidden state, so this does need to be specified somewhere. I don't particular care what the spec ends up being. For media elements, cloning some hidden state could be useful, but it is hard to implement.

We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all."
