Why do we want to do that?
"WebKit is an engineering project not a science project (see http://www.webkit.org/projects/goals.html). If you think certain WebCore feature should be implemented using shadow DOM, then please give us compelling justifications.

I object this.
Shadow DOM is not suitable for popup-style UI. WebKit has form validation message bubble implemented by Shadow DOM. However it was a wrong decision and we're switching it to native UI (See Bug 95527).
