Is it option-specific, though? Last I checked, various browsers
implicitly adopted on append/insert/replace, period.
Since when? I was sure that they didn't used to do this. DOM Core is
extremely clear on this issue (both in level 2 and level 3). You appear
to be correct: Firefox and Opera both just ignore the standard and get
this
wrong. Chrome just seems to get confused.
This changed a while ago due to compatibility problems. Consensus at the
time was to change DOM Core.
