Node::removedFrom is not called when a node is removed due to Document::removedLastRef. In that case, as an optimization, we just call the destructor (it is also rumored that this is the reason we do not issue onunload on frame destruction).

We need a better name for removedFrom, or some other mechanism, to remind implementors that anything they do to clean up pointers etc must be done in both the destructor and removedFrom.
