[[[
The Window object is a long-standing de facto standard for HTML user
agents.
]]]
and
[[[
The Window Object 1.0 specification defines a subset of the features
of the Window object, a widely implemented part of HTML User Agents,
with parts also found in non-HTML UAs that offer scripting and DOM
access.
]]]

* What is an HTML user agent?
* What is a non-HTML UA?
I can imagine a straight answer which would say "desktop browsers".
Then we start to think about search engine bots (with or without
scripting engine), HTML Scrapers, XSLT, etc. And what about SVG,
MathML or XHTML? What about a vocal browser? etc. etc.
