Re: [whatwg/dom] Allow custom "get the parent" algorithms for EventTargets (#583)

We are building web extensions which would like to implement events, to propagate critical occurrences from the browser api event listeners back to the extension business logic layer.

We would want to leverage the EventTarget implementation to build propagation, rather doing it in an ad-hoc way.

The ability to bubble the events is going to be a huge advantage given we can override/implement a custom 'get the parent' algorithm.
The shadow tree capabilities are not really necessary for author created event targets.
