           Summary: DOMException should extend ES Error
           Product: WebAppsWG
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC

To make DOMException Promises friendly, the DOMException IDL definition needs
to extend ES Error. See:
https://github.com/domenic/promises-unwrapping/issues/84

Testing the following:

<script>
try {
    document.body.appendChild(document.body)
} catch (e) {
    alert(e instanceof Error)
}
</script>

The latest versions of Chrome, Safari, and IE return true. FF returns false.
