Ah, yes.  I had missed that one.  This still has the unfortunate 
drawback, pointed out in my second mail, that bindings have to handle 
two possible event orders -- binding attached before or after the node 
is inserted in the document.  That's rather a burden on the binding 
authors, but I guess it can be dealt with...
