Among these many interesting points number five caught my ear:

> 5. Interwindow communication seems possible, based on just a few sentences from the programmers guide.

Gee!  Are you referencing what I think you're referencing, namely 
communication between window.document and an iframe's 
contentWindow.contentDocument?  In other words, we have this pivotal 
utility function that is relied on by a lot of the tests in 
acid3.acidtests.org:

   function getTestDocument() {
     var iframe = document.getElementById("selectors");
     var doc = iframe.contentDocument;
     for (var i = doc.documentElement.childNodes.length-1; i >= 0; i -= 1)
       doc.documentElement.removeChild(doc.documentElement.childNodes[i]);
     doc.documentElement.appendChild(doc.createElement('head'));
     doc.documentElement.firstChild.appendChild(doc.createElement('title'));
     doc.documentElement.appendChild(doc.createElement('body'));
     return doc;
   }

And we had set it aside, so is this back on the table thanks to duktape?
If so, that's great.  If not, it sounds like duktape is great anyhow, and 
thank you for doing all of this work on porting.
