Yeah, but my recollection is that renameNode() is in the list of DOM things
that are so hopelessly fuzzy that you probably don't want to touch them if you
plan on being interoperable. Rereading the description after not having touched
it in years certainly reinforces that feeling.
Sure. I wasn't exactly endorsing it; just pointing to previous attempts
to spec such a thing in case they would be useful.
