My hope was that it would be rare to override Symbol.create for Elements so in most cases we would not need to call user code. After further discussing this with Dominic and others I've given up the hope that an object instance cannot be reached before the constructor has been called. This can happen due to navigating the DOM tree but also be manually calling `MyCustomElement[Symbol.create]()`. At this point I believe we should just resolve to best practice and that is to not use @@create directly and do not navigate the DOM tree in your constructors. -- erik
