@pmdartus discovered in jsdom/jsdom#2347 (comment) that the algorithm as-is exposes closed shadow nodes. This also happens in Firefox.

See shadow-dom/event-composed-path.html in wpt.

It seems to solve this we'd need to record for each item in an event's path what nesting level it's at and whether it's inside a closed shadow tree?

(This was missed in #535.)

FWIW, I have a new algorithm described in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=180378.

The existing algorithm exposed nodes in shadow trees that should remain hidden. (This wasn't noticed in #535.)

This changes "get the parent" to return a tuple and therefore requires downstream changes in at least Indexed DB.

Tests: ...

Fixes #684.

I created a fix for this in #696, but note that this also requires changes to Indexed DB. I can make those if we can agree on the approach.

@domenic that seems to be basically the existing algorithm, which has the bug, no?

Not sure, I was just working off the comment which says that it doesn't implement the current algorithm. /cc @pmdartus.

Sorry, you're right, it seems equivalent to the WebKit approach, while also keeping some of the existing structures the specification has (not requiring a change to "get the parent"). Not entirely sure what's better.

You are right @annevk, the algorithms are sensibly the same.

As far as I understand @rniwa's algorithm the shadow depth is computed in advance and added to the path, while in the jsdom implementation shadow depth is computed in the getComposedPath.

re: Indexed DB - thanks for the heads up. PRs welcome!

So something has bothered me a bit and I'm not sure to what extent we should try solve it now. Before shadow trees you had node trees and event trees/paths. They were roughly analogous as you would only go up and down.

With shadow trees, node trees became more powerful, and some of that leaked into the event API. However, event trees/paths were still as powerful as before. The complexity of shadow trees ended up being a bunch of special cases in event trees/paths, rather than a generic mechanism that, e.g., something like Indexed DB could also use (or new EventTarget() once it exposes "get the parent").

The approach I took in #696 moves some of the shadow tree logic into "get the parent" so it's generalized and potentially reusable by other event trees/paths, but not all of it.

Is that a good direction to be heading in?

(If the answer is no, I should probably do the jsdom approach, which basically used the original dispatch and "get the parent" infrastructure to enable the same thing.)

Extending get the parent seems rather invasive. If I were you, I would have defined the depth of shadow trees as a separate concept, and simply stored that depth. My implementation in WebKit doesn't use that precise definition of the depth because computing the depth of tree happens to be an expensive operation in WebKit but one could imagine another implementation can cheaply compute the depth of (closed) shadow trees and simply store that information while building up the event path.

It's invasive, but it would allow non-node trees to have the same capabilities as node trees. Or are you suggesting that depth would be a property of a node? That'd also be somewhat invasive probably.

@annevk
Yeah, it is a little difficult for me to review the event dispatch steps and composed path steps in the standard. One of the reasons to me is Blink uses the different algorithm (but it should have the equivalent result), so I can't be confident with the correctness of each steps in the standard. :(

I have no concrete idea to make the situation better. Let me think somehow.

I don't know if that's all that important. I'm suggesting that the algorithm to build up the event path could simply check if a target is a node, and if so, compute the depth of the closed shadow tree at that point.

Okay, yeah, that's the status quo. So I guess it doesn't seem weird to you that the event API has node-specific stuff on it that cannot be used in non-node cases?

Yeah, it's probably not that bad, and the spec would be easier to read.

Source/WebCore:

This patch makes the check for whether a given node in the event path be included in composedPath
pre-determined at the time of the event dispatching per whatwg/dom#525.
This was a fix for the issue that if an event listener in a closed shadow tree removes a node in the
same tree in the event path, then composedPath called on its shadow host, for example, will include
the removed node since it's no longer in the closed shadow tree.

Naively, implementing this behavior would require remembering the original document or shadow root
of each node in the event path as well as its parent shadow root, or worse which node is disclosed
to every other node at the time of computing the event path.

This patch takes a more novel and efficient approach to implement the new behavior by adding a single
integer indicating the number of closed-mode shadow root ancestors of each node in the event path.
In computePathUnclosedToTarget, any node whose *depth* is greater than the context object is excluded.

Consider the following example:
div ------- ShadowRoot (closed)
  +- span     +- slot
If an event is dispatched on span, then the event path would be [span, slot, ShadowRoot, div]. Then
the values of integers assigned to each node would be: [0, 1, 1, 0] respectively. When composedPath
is called on span or div, slot and ShadowRoot are excluded because they have a greater *depth* value.

Unfortunately, this simplistic solution doesn't work when there are multiple shadow roots of the same
depth through which an event is dispatched as in:
section -- ShadowRoot (closed, SR2)
  |          +- slot (s2)
  +div ------ ShadowRoot (closed, SR1)
    +- span     +- slot (s1)
If an event is dispatched on span, the event path would be [span, s1, SR1, div, s2, SR2, section].
The values of integers assigned are: [0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0] respectively. When composedPath is called
on SR1, the simplistic approach would include s2 and SR2, which would be wrong.

To account for this case, in computePathUnclosedToTarget, we traverse the event path upwards (i.e.
ancestors) and downwards (i.e. descendants) from the context object and decrease the *allowed depth*
of shadow trees when we traverse out of a shadow tree in either direction. When traversing upwards,
therefore, moving out of a shadow root to its host would would decrease the allowed depth. When
traversing dowards, moving from a slot element to its assigned node would decrease the allowed depth.

Note that the depths can be negative when a composed event is dispatched inside a closed shadow tree,
and it gets out of its shadow host.

Unfortunately, the latest DOM specification has a bug and doesn't match the behavior of Chrome. This
patch proposes a new algorithm which can be adopted in whatwg/dom#684.

I created an alternative PR that effectively copies @pmdartus's approach in jsdom: #699 (with minor tweaks). That would not affect "get the parent" or Indexed DB and keeps dispatch rather special.
