No, I'm pretty sure that it's as Chris Lilley said a couple of days ago [1], that they were needed for Netscape 4, and are simply no longer relevant. There are seveal of these naughty getters and settings that I see commonly: getTarget() getOwnerDocument() getClientX() ...etc... These should be avoided if you want your code to be portable. But just to confuse the issue, there are several valid getters (and a smaller number of setters) in SVG's IDL: getBBox() getAttributeNS() getElementById() getCTM() ...and the list goes on... I've started a section on the SVG-Wiki that lists (and will eventually detail) only the "real" DOM methods and properties [2]. As I get time, or if others want to help, each method or property will have its own page with a description, parameters and return values, support matrix, and code example. I think I got most of the major ones, but if I missed any, please let me know.
