Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] A toast UI element (#385)

```js
import { showToast } from 'std:elements/toast';

const toast = showToast("Hello World!", {
    theme: "info",
    duration: 3000
});
```

Does this format not completely deviate from API currently in browsers? It looks to me Google is proposing to overload imports and stub in their own. This would make it difficult to polyfill in older/non supported browsers, too?

I also echo the comments from others that it feels like an existing element e.g `<dialog>` could be used to house the toast-like functionality and keep to standards already defined rather than create a new concept of tags prefixed with "std" e.g. `<std-toast>`.

I do really like this proposal overall though - having a way to define and position popups/toasts around other elements is long overdue. Maybe cc/ @FezVrasta can also share his thoughts on this proposal (as the author of [Popper.js](https://github.com/FezVrasta/popper.js)
