Hi

I've been working on a prototype that uses the Element.innerText
<https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:third_party/blink/renderer/core/editing/element_inner_text.cc;l=466;drc=277f4ab48eb85f7441f78aed191c31068ce89814>
API to get text from a web page (I'm calling this API with InnerTextAgent
<https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:third_party/blink/renderer/modules/content_extraction/inner_text_agent.cc;l=56;drc=277f4ab48eb85f7441f78aed191c31068ce89814>).
In some web pages the resulting text includes text from cross-origin
iframes (e.g. embedded tweets). My expectation is that this would work
similarly to the InnerText JS API
<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLElement/innerText>,
which does not return iframe text.

I'm able to reproduce this on Desktop and Android builds of Chromium, but
only on certain websites.

Here's a couple of examples:

atmospheric-river-19937062.php
https://www.si.com/nba/celtics/news/celtics-jayson-tatum-reveals-the-simple-reason-boston-took-down-undefeated-cavaliers

Is this the right API to use for this scenario? I'd like to replicate the
behavior of the JS API.
