My personal best estimate is about 30% chance for the one such
definition we have so far being web compatible. But this is mostly
based on gut feeling.

We have a proposal. It's at https://github.com/domenic/window-proxy-spec
I have an implementation that I've been trying to land in Firefox for a
few weeks. I had to fix a bunch of our tests, then restrict the change
to web pages because it breaks various extensions. I'm pretty hopeful
that I can at least get it to the point where I can try doing some web
compat testing...
