Yes I can. And solutions such as this one is how I expect my intended suggestion to be made available to current browsers until they die out.

The main problem I see is that since JavaScript does not allow method overloading (?) there is no way to separate between the native createElement, with one parameter, and the overriding new method. One must also develop a check for the new two parameter capability to avoid unnecessary messing with the Document.prototype.

But I do think these things are solvable.

For clarity's sake: I did not suggest this in order to solve my personal problem today. I think this is a feature that will be of benefit to many!
