Gecko bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=500937

The proposed patch there and (based on black-box testing) WebKit solve
the issue by running the HTML serialization algorithm when the owner
document of the input node is an HTML document.

This should probably be in a spec somewhere.

We’d need a spec for XMLSerializer first, I guess.

Then we need a discussion about the possibility of having a spec for
XMLSerializer, having already DOM3LS.


It should be pretty clear by now that XHR/DOMParser/XMLSerializer won and DOM3 LS lost. DOM3 LS is now just a legacy burden, but XHR, DOMParser and XMLSerializer need specs in order to iron out interop issues.
