Re: [csswg-drafts] [cssom-view] Specify document.caretPositionFromPoint in shadow DOM scenario (#9932)

Are there other APIs that pierce shadow DOM?

`Document.getSelection()` looks like a similar API to me, which doesn't pierce shadow DOM, and returns `(container_node_of_host, host_offset_in_container)` if the selection is inside shadow DOM (regardless of open or closed). It might be confusing if `getSelection()` and `caretPositionFromPoint()` return different results.

> `caretPositionFromPoint` do not pierce shadow DOM. Instead, put the API on `DocumentOrShadowRoot`.

+1 to this idea.
