Description:

Are we? If so, the main problem, besides ISSUE-72, is how to create an instance
of the object. From what I recall from the discussions we have several options:

(a) Leave it up to the language
(b) Create a method on some object (like Window or Document) that returns an
    the object.
(c) Do it through DOMImplementation

Given that (c) seems to be the most "correct" solution I favor that one.
