I just found another bug which is likely related:
The following AS:
delete range.children()[j];
Compiles (incorrectly) to the following JS:
delete range.children()[j];
While:
var childrenList:XMLList = range.children();
delete childrenList[j];
compiles (correctly) to:
var /** @type {XMLList} */ childrenList = range.children();
childrenList.removeChild(j);
It seems like XML.children() cannot be correctly inferred by the compiler as an
XMLList type.
