Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-view-transitions-2] `view-transition-group` and the root element (#10632)

If you want all children of the root to be clipped by it, you'd want to place them underneath the `::view-transition-group(root)` pseudo.

Yea I guess it makes sense from the point of view of the old element.
From the new element point of view, let's say the document element has a `clip-path`. That `clip-path` would clip the `::view-transition-group(foo)` whether it's nested or not, because `::view-transition-group(foo)` would be a descendant of `:root` regardless of it being a descendant of `::view-transition-group(root)`
