I took a first pass at this:

My thought here was that if Getting and Setting are defined e.g. in a  
DOM spec, a reference to that spec should be added; if not, ignore my  
comment.

I still can't parse/grok it but it's probably just me and I'll bug  
you about it in IRC (someday) :-).

Perhaps part of the confusion is that "user agent" in the context of  
this defintion is presumably a P&C user agent yet that qualification  
isn't made and the only reference to that definition is in Section  
6.1 and in that context the UA is the A&E UA.
