    <thetext>http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#radio-button-group

If we follow the rules of &apos;radio button group&apos;, an orphan radio button and non-orphan radio button are in a same group.  It makes some problems.  For example,

&lt;body&gt;
&lt;input type=radio name=group1 id=r1 checked&gt;
&lt;script&gt;
var clone = document.getElementById(&apos;r1&apos;).cloneNode();
&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/body&gt;

The r1 button is unchecked because the &apos;clone&apos; is added to the same group.

Proposal:
Update the following sentence:

 * Either a and b have the same form owner, or they both have no form owner.

==&gt;

 * Either a and b have the same form owner, or they both are in a Document subtree and have no form owner.</thetext>
