"Should events be paused on detached iframes"? Or another question? (Sorry, I've lost the context here.)
The thread is discontinuous in the archives (why?), but I think the relevant part was:
It's possible to switch these relevant checks to walk the ownerDocument chain instead, say. Then we need to audit all the callsites to make sure this makes sense at them and figure out what to do for the ones where it doesn't. (For example, should window.alert on the window of an iframe not in the DOM put up a dialog in a tab based on the ownerDocument of the iframe? Or not put one up at all?) There are quite a few APIs that need to be thus audited if this invariant is changed. -Boris
