* Section 5.8 Conditional Processing:
The specification says: 
"Conditional processing attributes  do not affect the processing of all elements. They can be specified only on graphics elements, container elements, text content elements, descriptive elements, timed elements  and the 'foreignObject'  and 'discard'  elements. A conditional processing attribute  on any other element does not affect whether that element will be processed."
Could you add an explanation about what happens to elements (script, handlers, animations, listeners) inside a container element which has a conditional processing attribute evaluated to false?
