The current implementation of <use> in Blink (and WebKit IIRC) is to literally cloneNode the referenced content into a ShadowRoot off the <use> element. Cloning the composed tree would change the way selectors in the cloned tree matched by changing the shape and order of the tree. It also means potentially cloning cousin elements of the used element which is somewhat surprising. I'd be inclined to say all shadow roots inside the used element are ignored, and all slots are inert. > The interactivity behaviors associated with the shadow dom is an > interesting question though.. today you are expected to attach event > handlers to the ElementInstance ( > http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/struct.html#InterfaceSVGElementInstance) which > is the DOM representation of the "replicated" tree--I'm not sure what this > would look like for Elements with an attached shadow. > The instance tree was removed in SVG2 I think, we certainly removed it from Blink. - E
