Is it option-specific, though?  Last I checked, various browsers
implicitly adopted on append/insert/replace, period.

Since when?  I was sure that they didn't used to do this.  DOM Core is
extremely clear on this issue (both in level 2 and level 3). You appear to be correct: Firefox and Opera both just ignore the standard and get this
wrong.  Chrome just seems to get confused.

This changed a while ago due to compatibility problems. Consensus at the time was to change DOM Core.
