Description Elliott Sprehn 2013-07-26 09:55:20 UTC
1.2 says:

Let LAST-VISITED-SHADOW-ROOT be the youngest shadow root which SHADOW-HOST hosts.

but the first step in 3.1 says:

Let LAST-VISITED-SHADOW-ROOT be SHADOW-ROOT.

which has the same effect.

I don't think you need step 1.2 at all. If you just need to initialize that variable then perhaps initialize it to null?

Looks like this is obsolete? I don't see the statements Elliott raised
in the tip-of-tree specification.
