If the intent here is to allocate an object that acts just like an Array
but has additional DOM-object-like behavior, I'd be interested in
feedback from implementors on how implementable this is likely to be....
In SpiderMonkey the answer is "not very" without at the very least
noticable performance penalties for either DOM objects (all DOM objects,
since they could no longer assume certain internal invariants they
assume now) or arrays, I suspect.
