I came up with [a technique](https://jsfiddle.net/f92jgc7a/3/) to work around the behavior that @WaltzingPenguin mentioned a few comments up. Basically, just check if the element contains **only text nodes** that contain **only whitespace** and if so purge them all. Do this in `connectedCallback` and any time nodes are added to or removed from the host with a `MutationObserver`.
