If so, I think this is worth calling out in a Note below that paragraph. Also, I have no idea what the existing 2nd note "The interfaces implemented by the event object..." means.

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Partially Accepted Change Description: see diff given below Rationale: I added the note. Not sure what to do about the second note you mention; I don't know how to make it clearer. It's trying to say that the Function object assigned to the event handler attribute is not the value passed to addEventListener, because the listener is only registered once, and it does various magic things in addition to calling the Function object (e.g. handling the return value). 30637 2 contributor 2010-01-06 11:04:33 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r4521. Check-in comment: Lots of rewriting of the event handler attributes stuff: remove mention of namespaces, clarify some notes, clarify when the listeners are registered, clean up some class=impl usage. http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=4520&to=4521
