Re: [whatwg/dom] Declarative Shadow DOM (#510)

> There's no JS here. Tools that read the DOM would have to update to know about declarative shadow roots, sure, but that's vastly easier than supporting JS.

This for me is a potential issue - if we're relying on support from SEO engines / HTML scrapers to add support, I think there'd be significant push back on adoption as people are after a solution for this with current bots / tools - particularly given the slowness / ambiguity around what bots can do already.

Is this a concern for others? Is it worth looking a solution addresses this? If others agree, then it might be worth looking at a declarative 'composed' DOM, rather than specifically a declarative Shadow DOM, which is something we're exploring over at [skatejs/ssr](https://github.com/skatejs/ssr)

Apologies if this is sidetracking from the main issue, but feel its worth mentioning. Thanks for getting this discussion going!
