Re: [whatwg/dom] Meta: a list of side effects that would be impacted by state-preserving move (Issue #1270)

I believe this would also affect [being-rendered](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/rendering.html#being-rendered), whose exhaustive implications I am not sure.  

- At least [`<object>`](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/iframe-embed-object.html#the-object-element:being-rendered) and  [`<embed>`](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/iframe-embed-object.html#concept-embed-active)[^1] would be affected.  
- It might have effect on `<img>` element that [allow auto-size](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/embedded-content.html#allows-auto-sizes), though I'm really not sure here.
- That might also affect `<select>` and `<input>` elements on which `showPicker()` has been called, keeping some pickers alive.   



[^1]: Though the specs for `<embed>` are a bit weird and ask the checks are made against the state at the first step of the event loop. But browsers [do agree](https://jsfiddle.net/h39nbwzo/) that moving it around in the DOM does trigger a reload, even if the move has been completed in the same EL iteration.
