Description Chris Dumez 2017-05-08 13:38:37 PDT 
Drop non-standard document.implementation.createCSSStyleSheet() API.

This was never-implemented by Firefox and they actually rejected implementing it:
- Drop non-standard document.implementation.createCSSStyleSheet() API

Blink dropped this API back in 2014 after getting UseCounter data showing this was not used:
- https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=363561
- https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!msg/blink-dev/uDjkuGA9gQs/zytnzJ6WryYJ

The API is not useful in its current state because even though document.implementation.createCSSStyleSheet() allows you to create a stylesheet, there is currently no way to associate it with the document.
