    <thetext>PORTING from TRACKER, ISSUE-186...
[see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-dom/2011JulSep/0122.html]
----

I&apos;m not really sure whether I should continue reviewing DOM Level 3 Events  
as the way comments are not being discussed by participants of the WG on  
this list but rather on teleconferences between a few people is not  
productive I think, but here we go...

http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/DOM-Level-3-Events/html/DOM3-Events.html#event-types-list  
forbids e.g. load events to be dispatch on XMLHttpRequest. That seems very  
wrong. In addition, if I create a synthetic event called load and dispatch  
it on a Text node listeners registered for it should definitely trigger.

Is the text that says &quot;required not&quot; etc. after the table non-normative  
too? That is not at all clear.

    <thetext>(In reply to comment #4)
&gt; Will strip the normative keywords.

Done.

Additionally, I added some clarity around the intent of the table, converted the normative-looking paragraphs to notes, and included the remark about XHR and dispatching untrusted events to anywhere you want. I think this helps dispell any myths surrounding the included table.

Thanks,
Travis</thetext>
