> Shadow roots aren’t exposed to script. But at some point down the road they should be, as part of the component model. This change is some incremental progress towards that goal. Making the change now makes sense because it means we can keep pushing on component model plumbing in layout tests, without exposing any component model API prematurely.

Can you give me an example (e.g. imagine we support XBL2) of what this would look like?  In general, we don't want to keep wrappers alive longer than necessary.
