Re: [w3c/webcomponents] Using slot="" attribute on <link rel="import"> (Imports without JavaScript) (#636)

@jourdanritchey I think you misunderstand HTML Imports - it is not for importing inline HTML snippet.
HTML Import (`<link rel="import" href="..">`) loads referenced HTML file but its document is separate
from the main document, although they are connected via `link.import` property. So it doesn't work as what you expected in Chrome. Usually primary usage for HTML Imports is to load a definition of web components, by running `<script>` in the imported HTML file, using some `<template>`s inside its body. HTML Imports' contents are never rendered unless some script explicitly moves the content into the main document.

What you proposed is like what SSI (server-side include) does in client side, without `<iframe>`?
