I probably need to be more explicit about host objects and add another step
just before step 5
If O is a host object, let tag be an implementation defined string value. The
value may not be "Array", "Boolean", "Date", "Error", "Function", "JSON",
"Math", "Number", "Object", "RegExp", and "String".
Also, the definition of Host Object needs to be tighten up to make it clear
that an object is only a host object if it has some "magical" behavior.
Finally, window.opera is really just a normal object it could use my proposed
private name based mechanism to set its toString tag.
