Description Ryosuke Niwa 2012-03-02 20:15:24 UTC 
The spec should clarify whether or not document-wide (soon to be per-host) editing states such as of StyleWithCSS and DefaultParagraphSeparator to be reset when a new document is loaded.
Comment 1 Aryeh Gregor 2012-03-05 18:06:25 UTC 
IIUC, the HTML spec says that when you load a new document, the Document object is replaced entirely.  Therefore, any state associated with it is replaced.  I added a note to this effect.  I also added that it gets reset on document.open(), which was not explicitly required anywhere before AFAICT.
