It seems that IE stops serializing .innerHTML after it has dealt with the
children of a <plaintext> element.

If we want to copy that, then change:
Append the value of running the HTML fragment serialisation algorithm on
the child element (thus recursing into this algorithm for that element),
followed by a U+003C LESS-THAN SIGN (<) character, a U+002F SOLIDUS (/)
character, the element's tag name again, and finally a U+003E
GREATER-THAN SIGN (>) character.
...to:
Append the value of running the HTML fragment serialisation algorithm on
the child element (thus recursing into this algorithm for that element).
If the child node is a plaintext element, then skip to the next step of
this algorithm.
Otherwise, append a U+003C LESS-THAN SIGN (<) character, a U+002F
SOLIDUS (/) character, the element's tag name again, and finally a
U+003E GREATER-THAN SIGN (>) character.
