Re: [whatwg/dom] Define cloning steps for an select element (#644)

To be clear, it hasn't been debunked. Backwards compatibility with a single implementation is not a thing standards typically care for. You need to look at where all implementations are at a given point in time to be able to judge whether a breaking change can be made.

Also, @domenic rightly observes that if this were a common pain point the evidence would be in libraries working around it. Libraries with reasonable adoption working around real or perceived shortcomings in standards has great value in the standardization process and can help us prioritize what needs to be tackled next.
