WebKit figured this out in <http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/11092>; we did in <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=801486>.

Opera and WebKit skip both SVG and HTML script, but not script in other namespaces. IE skips only HTML script. I expect to make Gecko match WebKit/Opera.

See <http://w3c-test.org/html/tests/submission/Ms2ger/the-elements-of-html/forms/the-option-element/option-text-recurse.html>.

Please check my wording, this is kinda convoluted.
Comment 3 contributor 2013-01-26 00:58:15 UTC 
Checked in as WHATWG revision r7652.
Check-in comment: option.text needs to exclude script nodes, for compat reasons
