Sorry about the delay.
As discussed on Matrix, I think the way this patch makes the cloning work on what the parser saw is incorrect and the spec instead requires the cloning to work on what's in the live DOM, which may be different if the option element opens, the network stalls, setTimeout modifies the DOM, and network resumes.
Further remarks in an inline comment.

I'm sorry that I've been in a very bad time management loop.
This looks very good, but there are some minor issues.
Thank you!

Let's merge this. Thank you and sorry about delay.
Relax “select”-element parsing to allow more child elements, and handle the “selectedcontent” element for cloning “option”-element content.
