XBL DOM Help Requested

I like the XBL anonymous content model a great deal, but there are a few questions I have unanswered.

I particularly like the proposed <xbl:element/> . If and when it's implemented, it would give me a lot of flexibility for defining new XBL bindings. You could have a node list represented by an element with the following anonymous content model:

<content>
  <children/>
  <element/>
</content>

As I'm starting to explore C++ and building Mozilla, I'm thinking maybe this is something I should implement (bug 98712 ). But there are a few points which I don't think the XBL spec really made clear when it came to how the DOM treats these anonymous nodes and their relationship to bound elements...

>XBL Questions

I'd really appreciate any advice on what the blank fields in the document's final table should be.
