Hi, (not sure this is the right place for this, but)

I was doing some testing via |typeof HTMLCanvasElement === "object"| and 
found:

* Firefox 3.5 and Safari 4.0 implement HTMLCanvasElement as an object
* Chrome 4.0 (Beta) and Opera 10.1 implement HTMLCanvasElement as a function

Which browsers are correct? Is this defined in the spec somewhere?
