Can we remove "If the context object is an HTML document, throw a NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR exception and terminate these steps." from http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/domcore/raw-file/tip/Overview.html#dom-document-createprocessinginstruction ?
Sounds good to me. Anne?
Yeah. You can already adopt them. Creating them too should be fine and result in less code in sane implementations.

FWIW, Opera already allows this. Filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687318 for Gecko.
