We need to make the migration story from framework components to custom elements _easy_ for all web developers. Cross-root selectors like `.foo .bar` are essentially required for this.

What do you mean by "all have this feature out of the box"? Clearly, cross-shadow combinator isn't a thing today.

That sounds like an entirely different problem statement. Please go file a separate issue instead of conflating that in this issue.
