            Bug ID: 27424
           Summary: Node.isSameNode() has non-trivial usage
           Product: WebAppsWG
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DOM

Chrome use counter data is around 0.01%:

The implementation is trivial so there's little to gain from removal.

It looks like Gecko is the only engine to not support it at all, having removed
it in 2012:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Node.isSameNode

In IE it behaves as if:
boolean isSameNode(Node other);

In Blink it behaves as if:
boolean isSameNode(optional Node? other = null);
