Cleaner way to write this:

    return shadowHost && shadowHost->hasTagName(videoTag);

But also, this needs a comment explaining why this is the correct implementation for this function. What is special about video tags?

Should put this into a local variable before the early return just above.

    Node* node = hitTestResult.innerNode();
    if (!node)
        return nullptr;

We need to allow automation of mouse events on video tags.
