@rniwa 

&gt; So in terms of the actual API shape, I&#39;m thinking that we want some kind of a way to query across shadow boundaries because iterating over each element and checking the existence of a shadow root is rather expensive

It would be great if this API was not limited to extensions (although maybe they could have exclusive access to closed roots?). 

It&#39;s very useful for testing or any operations that need to act deeply on shadow roots like styling.
