For legacy reasons, responseText and responseXML continue to work together despite the responseType that is set.

This is false. responseType "text" allows access to responseText, but not responseXML. "document" allows access to responseXML, but not responseText.

We made this exclusive to reduce memory usage. I hope that browsers will report the JSON errors to the console and I think at some point going forward we should probably introduce some kind of error object for XMLHttpRequest.
