Ah, that's better than using defaultView (because behavior for
defaultView on navigation and such is not defined in the spec and is not
consistent across browsers).
What's undefined about defaultView?
The main question is what, if anything, happens to it on document unload
or destruction of the browsing context. If I read the spec right,
defaultView should just stay the same across those operations, but it's
not clear to me whether it's on purpose. It certainly doesn't match UAs
in all cases, but UAs don't match each other very well either.
