I tend to agree, but I don't think this is very relevant for the specification at hand. Selectors API is a very simple and small specification and the security issues being pointed out in the separate section are hopefully widely known already. And if they're not it's not just Selectors API that's affected. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
