For multiple documents inside of a single window instance this is already true: Sure, but it's not true for documents in general. > I think you are asking that when comparing instances of elements originating from two different window objects the instanceof check can return true. Yes, indeed. Saying that it's true for all ownerDocuments implies that it's also true for ones from other windows. > Will this be new ECMAScript 6 behavior for instanceof ES6 has a new trap that allows the RHS of instanceof to return whatever value it wants, basically. I'm proposing that WebIDL define this trap for WebIDL interface objects to return whether the LHS implements the given interface. -Boris
