Some initial drafts used to have this and it was removed because of comments, iirc, from Maciej among other people. If enough authors and implementors support this idea though I suppose we can reconsider that. Anyone?
I think at the time I made my comments we were trying to be strictly compatible, i.e. not add anything to the spec that wouldn't work in current UAs. Since then, we've given up that principle, for instance by making XHR and EventTarget, so I don't think my past reasoning stands.
