So Gecko clones the base URL of a node:
http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-node-base-url

Chrome/Safari do not.

Internet Explorer does not support it to begin with.

Also seems like none of Chrome/Safari/Internet Explorer support
xml:base: http://dump.testsuite.org/xml:base/basic.xml Which is the
only reason we have baseURI to begin with (other than
document.baseURI, that's useful for <base>, but given the fragile
support maybe we could make that baseURL?).
