There hasn't been any traction on this feature, and we keep
paying the maintenance and code size and memory usage penalty
of having this implementation.

We can revive this from VCS history in the future if we decide
to start working on it again.  In the mean time, it's better
to remove it.

MDN apparently has some mentions of the API, e.g. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element

No site-compat effect since it's disabled by default.
