    <thetext>window.opener and some other properties can be replaced -- they are readonly, but setting them blows away the original attribute and its semantics.

Currently this is pending on WebIDL introducing [Replaceable] or some such.</thetext>

    <thetext>[Replaceable] is now in Web IDL:

  http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/WebIDL/#Replaceable

This doesn&apos;t make the property deletable, though.  Should it?

    <thetext>I&apos;ve marked .opener. I need to do more research to determine what else needs to be so marked, but I&apos;ll do that separately.</thetext>
