[Bug 23887] [Shadow] Put only the final destination insertion point to the event path

https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=23887

--- Comment #173 from Koji Ishii <kojiishi@gmail.com> ---
Status updates:

1. Olli and I are working on fixing the algorithm. I forgot to update this bug
for a while, sorry about that. I will try to keep the status updated here.

2. The new algorithm proposed here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1059989#c10
was tweaked by comments in this bug and as Olli and I discuss. I'm keeping the
updated algorithm in a branch of the spec here:
https://github.com/kojiishi/webcomponents/blob/event-path-23887/spec/shadow/index.html

3. A WIP patch implementing the algorithm to Blink is here:
https://codereview.chromium.org/906123002/
Olli and I are using Blink tests to find/fix issues in the algorithm. We've
narrowed down to 4 more test failures to attack.

Personally, I still can't be very clear that this additional complexity in the
spec and in the implementation is worth the perceived benefits. But I think
that comparison should be done once the algorithm is done without known flaws,
and the final call would be up to the WG, so I'm putting that aside for now.
