"The lengthComputable attribute must return the value it was initalised 
to. Its default value is false."

Then in the definition of the constructor: "Initialise all attributes to 
their default values. For each attribute with name /foo/ in the 
dictionary, initialise the attribute on the event with the same name /foo/ 
to the value of the attribute on the dictionary."

With a bit more massaging to use the right terms and so on, but that's the 
basic idea.
