I think there should be a way to get a collection of key names from
the DOMStringMap [1]. How about adding a fourth method to this
interface:
DOMStringList keys(); // XXX4 ?
Where this returns a DOMStringList [2] of keys (with no specification
on the order of keys, of course).
Also, I seem to remember seeing text in the HTML5 spec to the effect that:
<span id="foo" data-bar="baz" />
alert( document.getElementById("foo").dataset.bar );
would spit out "baz". I guess this was removed in favor of the
DOMStringMap interface? If so, why? Sorry, I know this must have
been discussed so a simple pointer to the discussion is fine.
Thanks,
Jeff
