I'd like to refocus on this.  _Is_ this something people want in ES 
proper, in which case we should work up a strawman, etc, or is this 
something I should talk to the DOM/WebAPI folks about?  The discussion 
seems to have veered a bit into how such functionality could be done, 
which is useful for making that sort of decision, but I'd really rather 
not rathole on deciding exactly what the API should look like when we're 
not even sure we want it at all.

So to be clear: is this something that people feel should be part of 
ES-the-language?
