Hi there, I was thinking more on last nights discussion on 4.2 Provide access to event handlers. It seems to me that the problems we've been having with it is about extent. As it stands, I think this seems like a separate application to a browser, there seems to be far too much technology / changes required to support (in any sensible way) all event handlers. However, I also think that it would be sensible for UAs to action a small but important set of handles in some kind of restricted way. I also think this speaks to the feasibility question I've been looking at, and also comprehensiveness too. Indeed, I think that there is a feasibility/comprehensiveness trade-off i.e. I believe in some cases it is not possible to have both and I would also say in these cases 'feasibility' must win out.
