Section 3.1.3 now contains the following reference to the ECMA algorithm agreed
upon in mail [1] and in comment 7. Note the second to last sentence:

]]
For purposes of comparison, all Arrays are greater than all DOMString, Date and
float values; all DOMString values are greater than all Date and float values;
and all Date values are greater than all float values. Values of type float are
compared to other float values numerically. Values of type Date are compared to
other Date values chronologically. Values of type DOMString are compared to
other values of type DOMString by using the algorithm defined by step 4 of
section 11.8.5, The Abstract Relational Comparison Algorithm, of the ECMAScript
Language Specification [ECMA-262]. Values of type Array are compared to other
values of type Array as follows:
