Re: [w3c/webcomponents] Provide a lightweight mechanism to add styles to a custom element (#468)

>  is there any way for these approaches to maintain the reference to the stylesheet?

Yes, it is possible to have them not copy the stylesheet but instead use the same instance. It's just a bit more work on the implementation side, not too sure on the spec side of things. Is it currently possible to have the same CSSStyleSheet object used in multiple places? (from experience on constructible CSSStyleSheets, I don't think so?) 
Anyways, since we have the behaviors of both approaches listed up, I want to ask the people in this thread:

- Are those behaviors what we wanted?
- Will we ever want to add more capabilities? (for example, allowing light DOM child selectors)
- Are both approaches equally hard to spec?
