Re: [whatwg/dom] Proposal: ParentNode.empty() (#478)

There's no such thing as "re-parsing an element". innerHTML = "" does the same thing as your proposed .empty().

I'll let @annevk make the call, but yes, I am pretty sure that is the preferred method for emptying an element. For documents, you've yet to present an example use case where you want to empty a document (as opposed to e.g. creating a new one using `new Document()`).
