There's also the [[DefineOwnProperty]] behaviour which is different from 
normal objects.  That kind of behaviour doesn't *need* to be handled by 
making NodeLists "real arrays", it can be done by making them proxies. 
Some people might prefer not to do require that though, if it is indeed 
possible to make them real arrays.
