Bug 1695578 was caused because HTMLMarqueeElement::FromNodeOrNull was being called, expecting an HTMLMarqueeElement* back, but instead that function didn't exist and that called nsGenericHTMLElement::FromNodeOrNull.
This seems like a reasonable thing to catch with a static analysis pass (we definitely want this for FromNode / FromNodeOrNull, but in general calling SubClass::Foo when resolving to ParentClass::Foo seems a bit suspicious).
