Hi,

I started working with webshim, the form shims to be exactly. The shadow elements buggle me hard, because:

- #id selectors do not work anymore (bad from JS)
- input[type=date] selectors do not work anymore (bad from CSS)
- the calculated width is wrong
- placeholder does not work

That are my first observations.

I've only worked with the jquery-ui datepicker before. Wouldn't $('input[type=range]').datepicker(...); enough as a polyfill? Same for the other new html5 form elements. Or an option would be cool to disable shadow elements?
