ISSUE-64 - Public View

Should the Window spec define Window's place in DOM event flow?

Window

Description:
In existing de facto Window UAs, the Window object is an EventTarget and part of the DOM event flow; for 
events in the contained Document, the event performs the capture phase on the Window before the 
Document and bubble after the Document. Should Window 1.0 cover this? Should we mention it in DOM 
Events as a requirement on UAs that also implement Window? Or should we defer it to a future spec?
