If a node is moved from one document to another (via adoptNode() or just appending in our DOM), what should happen to XBL bindings attached to it? If they are attached sXBL-style (so depend on definitions in the original document), should they stick around? What happens if the bindings implement interfaces? What happens if the new document specifies a different binding to be attached to nodes of this type?

XBL is now disabled in Firefox (Bug 1583314) and is in the process of being removed from Gecko (Bug 1566221), so closing bugs requesting changes to its implementation as wontfix.
