> What do you think, folks? Was there a writeup that explained how slots did not have the same performance/timing problems as select=""? I remember Alex and I were pretty convinced they did at the F2F, but I think you became convinced they did not ... did anyone capture that? My only other contribution is that I sincerely hope we can use tag names instead of the content-slot attribute, i.e. <dropdown> instead of <div content-slot="dropdown">. Although slots cannot fully emulate native elements in this manner (e.g. <select>/<optgroup>/<option>), they would at least get syntactically closer, and would in some cases match up (e.g. <details>/<summary>). I think it would be a shame to start proliferating markup in the <div content-slot="dropdown"> vein if we eventually want to get to a place where shadow DOM can be used to emulate native elements, which do not use this pattern.
