Does no one have an opinion on this?

Dropped.

Done, by adding a definition that maps it to CSS viewports.

Done, following Hixie's suggestions.

Done (as ModeChangeListener, of course), along with an explanation of
the reason it is expressed that way and an indication that for
Javascript it's just a Function.

I'd fix it but I don't really understand what it's expected to do. It
appears to be some form of device-independent, asynchronous alert. I
don't know if the use case is very strong, but I'm willing to be
convinced as alert() is indeed bad for a number of things. I look at
the Opera docs since that's where it comes from but they're not
clearer than the specification. If the above is indeed what it is
supposed to be, I can scare up some text explaining it, but we'd need
to at least know what happens if the alert() is cancelled (in most
windowing systems you can cancel an alert without hitting Ok,
typically Esc does it). Is the callback called? Or is it ignored? Or
called with a special value?
