Decoupling <style scoped> from Shadow DOM

Hi everyone,

First time caller, long time listener.

>From what I understand, the browser vendors seem to be bundling <style
scoped> with the Shadow DOM spec. I'd like to start a discussion around
decoupling the two and asking that vendors prioritize shipping <style
scoped> over Shadow DOM as a whole. As a web developer and JS framework
author, the single most important feature that I could use immediately and
I believe is totally uncontroversial is <style scoped>.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
- Erik
