            Bug ID: 26248
           Summary: Spec mismatch between createHTMLDocument and
                    textContent
           Product: WebAppsWG
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DOM

DOMImplementation.createHTMLDocument(title)[1] describes like,
  'Create a Text node, set its data to title (which could be the empty string),
and append it to the title element created in the previous step.'
While textContent attribute[2] says,
  'If new value is not the empty string, set node to a new Text node whose data
is new value.'

So it is confusing how to handle empty title DOMString on implementation.
