We should still give the feedback to W3C/WHATWG about this.

I definitely would not like us to be using Range here because of the performance implications (it slows down DOM). It's not the right kind of object to be pointing at a Node either.

A better approach would be adding a RefPtr<Node>, and then updating it in Document::nodeWillBeRemoved and Document::nodeChildrenWillBeRemoved manually.
