I'm not totally sure about this. The important part is that both the
following works:
<p id="p" style="binding:url('test.xml#test')">Foo</p>
<script type="text/javascript">
// assuming the binding adds a test method
document.getElementById("p").test();
</script>
and assuming that the document has defined my:test to have a binding
var el = document.createElementNS(myns, "test");
el.test();
From a usage perspective it does not really matter if the binding
document is loaded during load or only when needed. The important part
that Mozilla and IE50 missed is that the interface of the bound element
needs to be available all the time.
