Mouse events should be targeted to nearest Element, in general parentNode.
But (1) what if ShadowRoot has just textnodes as children? Should the ShadowRoot itself be in the path? I think not. Hit testing should just target the host.

(2) what if a textnode is distributed? Should the event propagate through the Shadow DOM? I think yes.


In Gecko I'll make the textnode -> some_element to use the nearest
Element in the final flattened tree.
