Description Vyacheslav Matva 2014-02-20 06:33:55 UTC 
On this diagram ( https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dom3events/raw-file/tip/html/DOM3-Events.html#event-interfaces ) CustomEvent inherits from Event interface.
But IDL says that it doesn't (https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dom3events/raw-file/tip/html/DOM3-Events.html#interface-CustomEvent).

If CustomEvent inherits from Event then dictionary CustomEventInit should inherits from EventInit.

Looks like bug in D3E interface definition, in DOM4 is correctly
