Re: The issue of ScriptProcessorNode not being an EventTarget

This issue is still pending but we need to move forward with _a_ decision
on the Gecko side of things, so I'm just going to assume that the spec is
going to get updated to make AudioNode an EventTarget and make
onaudioprocess an EventHandler.

Cheers,
