I think the construct of a parametrized type makes a lot of sense. But it  
should work like the types we have to date, so that NodeList,  
StyleSheetList, CSSRuleList, etc. can actually be defined (and  
implemented) as one. Introducing a completely new type with different  
behavior is not worth it.
