- header (LandmarkBannerRole) is same 
"header element that is not a descendant of an article or section element."
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/CR/dom.html#sec-strong-native-semantics

the original implementation of these requirements (for header/footer) were in webkit, Firefox and Chrome followed suit.
