Re: Comments on DOM 2

> Comments aren't there for program use, shouldn't be customized.

I agree in principle, but I'm not willing to bet that way right now. The
boundary of "program use" is fuzzy.

Thought experiment: What if the subclassing is being done to make the DOM
model interoperate with another API appropriate to that document type? A
comment might still want to be accessible via that alternative view.
