Nodes moving between documents (with their own globals) is certainly something that occurs frequently in the DOM. (We have not figured out whether the prototype object needs to change, whether it does not change and we run into garbage collection hell, or whether we mutate the identity of the object. I suspect if we defined operators for these kind of objects they would invoke adopt, depending on functionality.) XMLHttpRequest is also used across globals and its base URL is tied to the document base URL of the global it originated from (workers work different). Not sure how relevant either of these cases here, but platform objects definitely move between globals and given that you have synchronous access to everything the implications are generally not thought through and it's all expected to just work. -- http://annevankesteren.nl/ _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
