Re: [WICG/webcomponents] "open-stylable" Shadow Roots (#909)

I would still be concerned that this confuses the concept of layering with the concept of scope. I don't believe it's a good idea to encourage a layer-per-component approach (e.g. a 'buttons' layer). While this sort of layering-as-access mechanism doesn't require you to do that, it very clearly encourages it. Now as an author I will want to create individual layers for each custom element, so that element can reference the layer.

I think it's a good idea to allow layering of external styles, but dangerous to use layers as _the way we define access to those styles_. I think `@scope` would be a much better control for defining what styles are pulled in - and then layers could be used on both ends to help define the cascade of those styles when applied.
