+   * support for custom element extensions of built-in elements. In doing so, it
+   * copies attributes from the original `<template>` to a newly created
+   * `<dom-if>` or `<dom-repeat>`, which can trigger the bug mentioned above if
+   * any of those attributes uses Polymer's `on-` syntax for event listeners.
