If something takes a DOMString as value is it clearly defined what

it should be stated.
Seems reasonable to state that. I’ve added a note to do that when
I get
some time to allocate to editing Web IDL again.
I actually thought about this some more, and realised i'm not entirely
sure this should be part of webidl as it seems a little too language
specific. Eg. WebKit also provides an objective-c interface to the
DOM to application developers, allowing them to interact with a
webpage (or other content) through the DOM directly from their
application code.
Thanks,
