           Summary: Properties of the window object should not be
                    read-only
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Bindings
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: barraclough at apple.com


DOM elements accessible as properties of the window object are reported as read-only, non-configurable.  This is problematic because it implies that any attempt to write a property with a matching name to the window object should fail.  In Chrome these properties are reflected as writable, configurable, and on FireFox these properties are not visible via getOwnPropertyDescriptor.  For now follow Chrome, since this is closer to our current behavior & implementation, but in time we may want to change this.
