Hi.

This is a last call comment on the XBL 2 Editor’s Draft (dated 27
October 2006).

5.3 Accessing Binding Implementations
=====================================

  In addition, in languages that support dynamic dispatch, any attempts
  to access members of ElementXBL objects that do not correspond to
  methods or properties on the object itself but do correspond to
  members of one of the objects in the xblImplementations list must be
  forwarded to the last object in the xblImplementations list that is so
  matched.

It should be mentioned here that ECMAScript is one such language that
supports dynamic dispatch, and how this should be achieved (presumably
by modifying the prototype chain).


Thanks,

Cameron
