The FocusEvent interface itself seems fine, and a good solution. I do think it would be worth doing some cursory research to determine whether it is a problem to support "focusin" and "focusout" events without 100% API compatibility with IE. Do sites only use these in IE- specific code paths currently, or is it possible that they register and use IE-specific APIs? These questions are relevant, because we may want to support IE's toElement and fromElement attributes in the standard, depending on the results. Regards, Maciej
