Comment:
This test case alerts 0 in all current released browsers:
data:text/html,<!doctype html><script>var el =
document.createElement("select"); el.multiple = true; alert(el.size);</script>
 As it stands, the spec says it should alert 1.  While we're in the habit of
making the world making more sense, why not say that the default for the size
IDL attribute is the same as for the size content attribute, namely that it's
4 if multiple is set and 1 otherwise?  (What does it even mean for a content
attribute to have a default?)
