"in Chrome Chrome" ;)

Done.

Is there no other way to figure out if the shadow element is being ignored?

[Sebastian Noack, 2014/04/17 12:24:17]

Please see the discussion at https://issues.adblockplus.org/ticket/309. Wladimir
suggested to check for presence of HTMLShadowElement. But that object exist and
even |document.createElement("shadow") instanceof HTMLShadowElement| returns
true. But it is completly ignored when the website is rendered.

[Thomas Greiner, 2014/04/17 12:24:17]

In what way is it broken? You mention that the "<shadow> element is ignored".
Would the following check help for this case?

typeof HTMLShadowElement != "undefined"

and/or

document.createElement("shadow") instanceof HTMLShadowElement

[Sebastian Noack, 2014/04/17 12:30:32]

Same effect as if it wouldn't be there. And since <shadow> is the insertion
point, that means that the page is always rendered empty.
No, see my previous comment.

   {
     var shadow = document.documentElement.webkitCreateShadowRoot();
     shadow.appendChild(document.createElement("shadow"));
     shadow.appendChild(style);
 
     try
     {
       document.querySelector("::content");
 
       for (var i = 0; i < selectors.length; i++)
