Caniuse: The <slot> element

[edgerunner]

It seems that the <content> element is being deprecated in favor of a new <slot> element in the Web components spec. Would be good to keep tabs on it.

is the <slot> element related to the slot attribute in any way or would that be a separate request? I'm not seeing it in caniuse, but it's possible I'm searching for the wrong thing OR that it's already widely supported and I am just out of touch...

They're linked - see How to Use HTML template & slot With Shadow DOM - although the Shadow DOM has very poor (native) browser support so far.
