I guess you’re saying it should really be WindowEvent rather than
DocumentEvent. Then it would make sense to have
WorkerUtils implements WindowEvent;
in Web Workers. (Well, we could do that now, but it would be strange to
have createEvent() on Document in regular windows but on the global
object in workers.)
Maybe we should also have:
[Constructor]
interface UIEvent : Event {
// …
};
etc.
