if as a web author I call drawCustomFocusRing and it returns false, I'm not
supposed to draw anything according to the spec. That's what doesn't make
sense to me.

It would take an element in fallback content as an argument. That would

scrollPathIntoView can't be used to notify accessibility software of the
focused object location as-is because it doesn't have an element to fire
on, and it doesn't know if the scrolling is because of focus or not.

If we added a canvas fallback element as a parameter to scrollPathIntoView,
I don't think we'd need drawCustomFocusRing.
