Re: [w3c/webcomponents] "::slotted" pseudo elements (#331)

@annevk `::slotted` does not represent anything on its own; it's an aliasing pseudo-element (the first of its kind, I guess) rather than a box-creating pseudo-element.  In other words, it functions kinda like a combinator, but with limitations (one compound selector).

@TakayoshiKochi Yeah, I can make the argument mandatory.

@hayatoito Thanks for the review!

I hadn't caught that multiple shadow roots were removed; I'll fix.

For the rest of your comments, I will (a) rephrase the explanatory part to be clearer that I'm not trying to redefine anything from DOM, just provide some framing for everything else in the spec (so people don't have to go read and understand DOM just to understand what I'm talking about), and (b) pull in all the flattening/distributing stuff so you can remove it from Shadow DOM.

Between DOM and CSS Scoping, it looks like nearly all of Shadow DOM is getting eaten by other specs, so we should be able to remove most or all of it soon!
