Comment:
EventTarget here would be more useful if linked to
http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/DOM-Level-3-Events/html/DOM3-Events.html#webidl-
events-EventTarget than the triply or quadruply indirect link it is now.

What would doing this entail? Is there some easy way for me to do it?

I think it either requires using https://bitbucket.org/ms2ger/specification-data (e.g. <code data-anolis-spec=domcore>Document</code>) or figuring out something new that works for everyone. specification-data is now used by DOM, Editing, XMLHttpRequest, and some other specifications.

I'm not going to do this for a while. Patches welcome though.

Rationale: This is indeed useful, I think that we just need to upgrade our Anolis and perhaps hack around a bit, but it's not a super high priority at this second.
