Johan, when we say wrapper we don't mean a div in HTML.
We mean instead of extending the native DOM elements
$(element) - returns an extended dom element
$(element) - returns an instance of a ElementWrapper class
the class interacts with the element but does not extend it directly.

Kangax looks good.
I think that it should be $() instead of $W(), but for the purpose of
clarity during the
discussion the use of $W is fine.
I think that any method that returned element, will instead return
NodeWrapper.
Any method that returned an array of elements will return a

This could lead to ambiguity. We should probably discuss it more.
I agree that it is ambiguous. I find the selector result
@Key Snyder - correct I was assuming Array.prototype was not extended
and that we were using wrappers.
@kangax
I don't think there would be confusion with things like $$
(..).getValue() here.
Keep in mind users do use the equiv of $$('#myId') and that in those
cases you are expecting 1 result

Accompanying tests are there as well (although the test suite is far
