Except not, in terms of its effects on "background". I really wouldn't try using ::first-line as an example of anything sane... Well, right, ::first-line has a lot of issues that would not be relevant to this. Shadow DOM would not have elements that are only partially contained. I only meant that conceptually it is similar in that it is a defined area, not part of the regular DOM, that can contain children (children you might want to style with something like '::first-line span', if we relaxed the restrictions on pseudo-elements). So to me, conceptually, the shadow 'document' is very much like a pseudo-element that you want to be able to select the children of. It is almost an element, maybe in between what is an element and what is a pseudo-element.
