However note that I'm not sure that failing to parse should fire an
error event. For someone only caring about responseText things loaded
just fine. (I think I actually changed firefox from what you describe
to what I describe sometime after Firefox 2, for this very reason).
The "XML" part of the name "XMLHttpRequest" was never very true.
Ah, understood. I think I could work around that by checking
responseXML to see if it's right. If it's not, perhaps I could manually
dispatch an 'error', if there's a way to manually, create and init a
progress event so that you can dispatch it. Will play with that.
I can do this in FF:
[...]
A little better error handling:

I drop my request for HTTP status code compat.
I'll try to get the exception info vagueness fixed in browsers to improve
wrapability of XHR instead.
