--- Comment #3 from Joe Pea <joe at trusktr.io> ---
Can you guys please fix this? The reason for following the spec in such a way doesn't outweight the benefit of being able extend from HTMLElement, especially when using the new Custom Element API.

After applying a `document.registerElement` polyfill in Safari, this is what we have to do in order to make a Custom Element that extends from HTMLElement using ES6 classes:


```js
import 'document-register-element' // polyfill

// hack for Safari.
if (typeof window.HTMLElement != 'function') {
    const _HTMLElement = function HTMLElement(){}
    _HTMLElement.prototype = window.HTMLElement.prototype
    window.HTMLElement = _HTMLElement
}

class MyElement extends window.HTMLElement {
    createdCallback() { ... }
    attachedCallback() { ... }
    detachedCallback() { ... }
    attributeChangedCallback(attribute, oldValue, newValue) { ... }
}
MyElement = document.registerElement('motor-node', MyElement)

export default MyElement
```

I think it's time to fix this and get Custom Elements working, and in general to be compatible with ES6 classes.
