Chrome, FF? nodelist is non-live in all of them.

The authors of the selector API could have saved a bit of confusion by
giving their collection a name other than NodeList. In all DOM
specifications, NodeLists are live. Perhaps the object returned by the
selector API should have been called a StaticNodeList.


It was originally called "StaticNodeList". I don't know when it was changed. I guess the thinking was, that in terms of the methods they provide, they are identical. The only differences are internal.
