[css-scoping] Always serialise the implicit `:scope` ?

[mdubet]

For the css-nesting spec, we resolved to always serialise the implicit &:

When serializing a relative selector in a nested style rule, the selector must be absolutized, with the implied nesting selector inserted.

https://drafts.csswg.org/css-nesting/#cssom

Should we do the same for the implicit :scope in scoped style rule ?

They accept a relative-selector-list as their prelude (rather than just a selector-list). Such relative selectors are relative to :scope.

The CSS Working Group just discussed [css-scoping] Always serialise the implicit `:scope` ?, and agreed to the following:

• RESOLUTION: serialize implicit scope pseudoclass in rule selectors

<frances__> matthieu d: in css copying spec all rules in the spec have a : scot selector, nesting serialize implicit selector, value context related to selector
<Rossen_> ack TabAtkins

<Rossen_> ack emilio
<frances__> tabatkins: more transportable to other spots for javascript copying and pasting

<frances__> emilio: consistent for @ scope or nested inside, still seems fine
<Rossen_> ack miriam
<frances__> miriam: question, what implications does this have for the behavior or just internal?
<frances__> matthieu d: no implication, only for serialization, one value for specificity, already counted
