IE10 behaves the same in your test case.

Did you mean to say "change *HTMLCanvasElement* from original step 2 to
CanvasImageSource" here? The original step 2 has

  # If the image argument is an HTMLCanvasElement object with either a

  # the implementation throw an InvalidStateError exception and return
  # aborted.
