And a suggestion: in the spec I read "@@Issue: Does it bubble / is it cancelable? I am not sure why it would / be, myself." It should only bubble and have as target the related document, or xhr object, just like the load event.

Actually, that was the bit I forgot to say before. In fact, we decided to make
it cancelable, but not bubble, since you could capture it if you want and
forcing it to bubble eats run-time resources...

If you think we got it badly wrong, can you please give a more detailed
explanation of why? The only rationale we were offered so far was that since more or less everything bubbles, it would require special casing this in an implementation to stop it bubbling which is a minor pain. Our call was that the
run-time cost was more serious.

Sorry, I meant only to have a capturing phase, and not to bubble.
