Description Eric Bidelman 2013-04-24 03:53:41 UTC 
Use case is filling an iframe[seamless].srcdoc with template.innerHTML.
I want to override the <body> an iframe creates by default. With the
seamless attribute, the styles bleed through from the parent frame so the
frame inherits the body styles defined in the parent. Thus, there's no way
to override them in the iframe.

Here's an example:
