Re: [whatwg/dom] Node.prototype.rootNode is not Web compatible (#241)

There was never consensus here. I repeatedly said I wanted a property and requested you come up with a better name. I'm even the person who originally proposed this api exist.

Note that this api also spiraled out into various complexities. Authors need a way to get the ShadowRoot or Document since it's where they can access various things like the focused node, hit testing, stylesheets etc. Having access to the top of a detached subtree that's just a random Element is a different problem. Accessing the composed node is another.

Let's solve the basic problem here. What's property name we can use?
