Re: [w3c/webcomponents] Form autocompletion is broken when form elements are encapsulated within a Shadow DOM (#649)

Autofill works. It's implicit submit and form submission that don't.

Well, you can create a custom element without using shadow DOM to encapsulate the form parts. But assuming you want to use shadow DOM, what we need here is basically #187 for form submission.

I haven't heard of anyone requesting implicit submit support. For that I suppose you could use keydown event listeners and such to emulate the behavior.
