+1 for removing / externalizing it. Not now, but definitely in the (not so 
far) future.

>From the outside these two "features" are an undocumented mess and I would 
say that no one except Google depend on them. And given that GWT is in a 
process of moving away from older browsers it is quite questionable to keep 
this code. In modern browsers it is very likely that you don't see any 
speed gains by using these features as long as you work on detached DOM 
trees when setting up the UI.
