Status: unprioritized, incomplete information dump

High priority:

Move nodes and elements to generated bindings
- Generate stubs (ie. empty interfaces) for any inherited interfaces required
- Comment out anything referring to types that aren't generated yet (that aren't in the Node hierarchy)
- Make the codegen require all generated types to provide a trace hook function (ie. NameOfInterface::trace) and make use of it

Unimplemented webIDL/binding features:

Unions (used by Canvas, for example)
Expando properties
Cross-domain wrappers
Sequences
Exceptions
Constants
Callbacks
Arrays
Date
Annotations
Clamping
Ability to set up Window as the global object
...

Incomplete work:

Majority of proxy hooks
DOMString conversions according to spec
Nonfatal enumeration behaviour
...

Untested:

Overloads
