I think you're right there.

I'm feeling like moving all the named properties of Window to an object 
on the prototype chain would work best here:

   Object.prototype <- Window.prototype <- [named props obj] <- window

Is anyone doing Object.getPrototypeOf(window) and assuming it's 
Window.prototype?  A Google code search (enjoy it while it lasts) finds 
some people assigning to properties window.__proto__.  We could probably 
make that work on the named properties object.
