As you point out, this is clear from the Event::initEventNS method, and
in DOM Level 3 Events all similarily named methods simply defer to that
method, as such I am not sure there is anything unclear here. I agree
that any other specification of such methods should also defer to the
DOM Level 3 Events specification. There is no implied preference as to
what method authors should use for events in no namespace. I will leave
the other questions to whoever edits the 'progress' draft.
