Re: xblShadowTree readonly? When does alternate rendering occur? xblBound boolean? (was Re: xblBoundElement in sXBL)

But to allow script to traverse the flattened tree, you need NodeXBL to
be implemented by other, non-element nodes, so you can access their
xblPreviousSibling/xblNextSibling/etc. attributes.

That, or should the interface be split into two?  One for nodes which
can appear in the flattened tree (NodeXBL) and another for shadowable
nodes (which would contain the xblShadowTree attribute).
