alert() requires it.
How so? I couldn't imagine how a site could depend on that.
Debugging, for one. You can't mean that you'd consider making alert(null)
give a dialog that contains the empty string rather than "null".
Besides that I believe we (Opera) specifically did it
for methods here and there to be more compatible with Internet Explorer
and make sites work better.
Do you know of any sites worked better because of the change? Or
indeed that were affected at all by the change?
No, sorry. I believe WebKit is doing it as well though for a number of
methods/attributes, but it's been a while since I looked into this.
