[whatwg/dom] "In a document" confusion (#238)

So I guess this has been discussed to death elsewhere, but naively putting on my web developer hat, something that's in a shadow tree is still "in a document". Maybe in English: the element is in the shadow tree, the shadow tree is in the document, therefore the element is in the document.

Have we considered "in a document's light DOM" or similar?

It seems like regardless of what we do we're going to have to audit every use of "in a document" and figure out whether it should become "in a document's light DOM" or "in a shadow-including document".
