Specificationhttps://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/5465 Summary Chromium has shipped [1] a version of declarative shadow DOM in M90 which currently has 0.014% usage [2]. Mostly, the low usage is due to the spec PR being stalled with no input from other implementers. Recently, there has been renewed interest in the feature, and discussions have resumed. As part of those discussions, two changes have been generally agreed upon: 1. Rename the `<template>` attribute from `shadowroot` to `shadowrootmode`. 2. Support streaming, by attaching the shadow root on the opening, rather than the closing, template tag. While the PR hasn't landed, and there is still an open issue (related to the DOMParser), we would like to ship the agreed upon behavior listed above. WebKit has already enabled this behavior by default <https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/commit/e7d5dde467956b24438d23f458d4d527f7fd108d>.

The launch plan is to ship the new behavior via the new attribute name (`shadowrootmode`), while preserving the old behavior under the old attribute name (`shadowroot`). Once the new behavior is landed and stabilized, we will make a plan to deprecate the old shadowroot attribute and behavior. This should ensure that the compat risk is low as we transition to the new behavior. *Gecko*: Positive ( https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/5465#pullrequestreview-1132523065) *WebKit*: Positive ( https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/5465#pullrequestreview-1132523065) *Web developers*: Positive (https://github.com/whatwg/dom/issues/831) Search "streaming" on the issue discussion and you'll find many supportive comments. *Other signals*: Ergonomics No difference from existing, shipped declarative shadow DOM implementation.

Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github issues in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or structure of the API in a non-backward-compatible way).
