Well... As things stand, I'm just not sure what that language means. In practice, in bindings that require that all arguments to a function be passed (e.g. everything in Mozilla) the function is simply impossible to call without passing in a type. So this whole sentence becomes irrelevant, I think. That is, I see no implication here that the function needs to be callable with some of the arguments left out. If, on the other hand, the Working Group means "an empty string" when it uses "not specified" here, then this needs to be clarified. As things stand, I'm not sure what the spec is really saying. -Boris
