[x3d-public] [x3dom-users] Bad rendering of JSON SimpleShader in X_ITE

John,

It shouldn't. There was a spec change and your browser may be caught 
between versions. If you insert an existing DOM node into another 
portion of the tree, it will first be removed from its existing location 
before it appears in the new location. A clone should create a 
completely separate copy; however, there may be some issues with data 
structures inserted into the DOM that are intended to be single-existence.
