 It is the responsibility of specifications using Web IDL to state
 which global environment (or, by proxy, which global object) each platform
 object is associated with.
 
+<div algorithm>
+    To <dfn>create an object implementing the interface</dfn> |interface|, with optional
+    intenal slots |slots|, for an interface which is not declared with the
+    [{{Global}}] [=extended attribute=], perform the following steps:
+
+    1. If |slots| is provided, append \[[PrimaryInterface]] to |slots|.
+    1. Otherwise, let |slots| be &laquo; \[[PrimaryInterface]] &raquo;.
+    1. Let |proto| be the [=interface prototype object=] of |interface|.

I mean `class Foo extends Event` in JS.

> Are there any specs that don't want the default prototype?

Well, `new Foo` in my example does not want the default prototype.  What prototype would it get and why, as things stand now?
