Description Anne 2016-01-14 18:29:33 UTC 
For https://github.com/annevk/html-cross-origin-objects/blob/master/Location.md I need to overwrite the internal methods of the Location object. Should there be some language around this that makes it fit in with IDL? Perhaps IDL should expressly allow this? (Though also discourage it for almost everything, but the couple cases where we need it due to legacy...)

https://github.com/annevk/html-cross-origin-objects is the new place.
