As for event listeners, I think it's bad how if you set an anonymous function, it can't be removed using removerEventListeners. The idea of creating an unstoppable event listener is just silly! Hopefully this problem will be solved in the future: http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-DOM-Level-3-Events-20020208/changes.html I've no idea how long it would take for "eventListenerList" to be implemented in browsers though...
