There is no sane way to mutate the list on the part of the browser if
someone else is also messing with it, because the someone else can
violate basic invariants the browser's behavior needs to maintain.
unless the argument is that the slots should
be non-configurable, non-writable except by the browser that's also
holding a ref to it.

Though I don't know what "slots" you're talking about; the only sane JS
implementation of live nodelists is as a proxy. There's no way to get
the behaviors that browsers have for them otherwise.
