Specificationhttps://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-element-gethtml Summary The prototype implementation (which was shipped in 2020 and then shape-changed in 2023) contained a method called `getInnerHTML()` that could be used to serialize DOM trees containing shadow roots. That part of the prototype was not standardized with the rest of declarative shadow dom, and only recently has it reached spec consensus ( https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/8867). As part of that consensus, the shape of the getInnerHTML API changed. This feature represents the desire to ship the new, agreed-upon shape, which is: - getHTML({serializableShadowRoots:bool, shadowRoots:[roots]}).

And the spec PRs got comments and support from multiple implementers, so I would expect support coming soon from other browsers. *Gecko*: Positive ( https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/10139#pullrequestreview-1966263347) *WebKit*: Neutral (https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/10139) General comments from annevk@ seem supportive, but no LGTM directly. *Web developers*: No signals *Other signals*: WebView application risks Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?

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).
