Which event listener attributes do we actually *need* it for currently? Is it a set that might creep to become bigger? Consistency across all event listener attributes seems nice to me, but I admit it is trading off against hiding authoring errors. Regardless, I don't think we want to allow [TreatNonCallableAsNull] behaviour elsewhere. It's not consistent with how type conversion is done elsewhere.Received on Tuesday, 6 March 2012 04:24:45 UTC
