The content of these elements shall not be displayed. Or the layout might depend on a new created viewport by the currently unknown element. This is an issue of forwards compatibility.

These new types of things wont' contain raw text (at least, we've
never created an element that accepts text besides <text> and
friends), so they wont' display anything by default, and we're fine.
