I see.  This can occur even for Nodes which aren't ActiveDOMObjects if something retains the Node without retaining the EventListener.  The EventListener can then be GCed and the Node won't be GCed.

I'm curious why it isn't a better solution to group the Nodes and their EventListeners in V8GCController so they're collected together or not at all.
