No I didn’t, I felt it wasn’t exactly a standard method anyway and 
probably the browser vendors only added it for compatibility with 
content that was specifically made for IE… And then the children 
collection in particular, probably the tags method is little used and 
thus did not receive much or any testing.

If tags() is also on document.all, this perhaps explains the Safari 
behaviour of returning more than just direct children.
