One problem with what the spec currently says, if I read it correctly, is that it doesn't round-trip scripts correctly, at least as far as I can see. What Gecko serializes as the innerHTML of the script is something that, if you set the script's innerHTML to that value, will give a script that is equivalent to the original one if it's executed. That doesn't seem to be the case for the spec's current behavior... -Boris
