Comment 1 Dominic Cooney 2013-06-10 23:17:15 UTC 
This check is the purview of Web IDL. Shadow DOM does not need to redundantly specify it. It also specifies a different error (Web IDL specifies TypeError), which is confusing. Let's not do that.

Specifically this check should be removed:

"If the context object is not an element, throw an InvalidNodeTypeError."
