Indeed. For one thing, we haven't switched Window to the new bindings yet.
This is from a stable-release Firefox Web Console. I believe it matches a real DOM content window. I don't see EventTarget
Because it's not on the proto chain at all; in Gecko as of today Window doesn't inherit from EventTarget; instead "Window implements EventTarget", effectively. Again, we just haven't switched Window to WebIDL yet.
The Global Scope Polluter you see there, though, is in fact defined in WebIDL.
The global object's prototype chain must end with Object.prototype (ES5 says so, IIRC).
Yes.
But the exact chain is not something that should be standardized in detail.
Why not? -Boris _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
