Re: [whatwg/dom] Can one get the "original" name of an element? (#460)

My understanding is that the parser is responsible for the lowercasing; the mixed-case name is never even passed to DOM's element-creation algorithms, so even if DOM wanted to store it somewhere, it couldn't.

On the other hand, if you are in an XML document, then the parser won't lowercase, I believe. So in that case it'll just be available as `.localName`.
