Comment #6 on issue 1636 by [email protected]: Prototype chain is not searched if named property handler does not set a property
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=1636
Below I refer to named property setters as interceptors and refer to all other setters simply as setters.
r9431 fixes this issue for the case when the instance has an interceptor and the prototype has a C++/JS setter.
The case when both the instance and the prototype have interceptors is not fixed. Currently V8 does not search the prototype chain for an interceptor even if the instance has no interceptor. Is it critical for Web Components? If yes, we should probably open a separate issue for the simpler case (when the instance has no interceptor but the prototype has).
