Description Dominique Hazael-Massieux 2011-05-06 12:50:38 UTC 
in the section "3.2.2 Elements in the DOM", the  Web IDL definition of HTMLElement says:
  [PutForwards=value] attribute DOMSettableTokenList dropzone;

But according to WebIDL, PutForwards can only be used on read-only attributes.

Status: Accepted
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: The current spec has

  [PutForwards=value] readonly attribute DOMSettableTokenList dropzone;

so it looks like it's correct now.
