DOMExceptions have both a code and a message. Perhaps the
constructor should be extended to include both.

code is legacy, but name would be good to expose.
The constructor has the same signature as the standard ECMAScript Error
constructors, so we are being consistent there. I think it's fine for
code and name to be assigned after creating the object, if JS needs to
create a DOMException object (which I don't expect to be a common thing
anyway).
Well, it does make
# throw new DOMException("message")
and bit more verbose:
# var e = new DOMException("message");
# e.code value;
# throw e;
Adding the code as a second optional argument would be ok.
