Thanks for notifying the list.  As it is for consistency with legacy 
behaviour – i.e. to have all event handler IDL attributes 
[TreatNonCallableAsNull] – it's fine to use it.

I've mailed www-dom with my request to include a definition that 
everyone can use instead of the awkward "[TreatNonCallableAsNull]
