[webkit-dev] about hashmap staticDOMObjects

[ZHOU Xiao-bo]

oh, I got an idea:
Is it because these domobjects doesn't belong to a Document, so they can't
be
stored in

static NodePerDocMap& domNodesPerDocument()
{
    ASSERT(JSLock::lockCount());
    static NodePerDocMap staticDOMNodesPerDocument;
    return staticDOMNodesPerDocument;
}
