/**
 * A wrapper around a native element inside of a View.
 *
 * An `ElementRef` is backed by a render-specific element. In the browser, this is usually a DOM
 * element.
 *
 * @security Permitting direct access to the DOM can make your application more vulnerable to
 * XSS attacks. Carefully review any use of `ElementRef` in your code. For more detail, see the
 * [Security Guide](http://g.co/ng/security).

  /**
   * The underlying native element or `null` if direct access to native elements is not supported
   * (e.g. when the application runs in a web worker).

   * <div class="callout is-critical">
   *   <header>Use with caution</header>
   *   <p>
   *    Use this API as the last resort when direct access to DOM is needed. Use templating and
   *    data-binding provided by Angular instead. Alternatively you can take a look at {@link
   * Renderer2}
   *    which provides API that can safely be used even when direct access to native elements is not
   *    supported.
   *   </p>
   *   <p>
   *    Relying on direct DOM access creates tight coupling between your application and rendering
   *    layers which will make it impossible to separate the two and deploy your application into a
   *    web worker.
